If there we're a cure "It would be out there". I do however find the BGDL interesting. I've spent more time on this website than any other I've ever found. If my scheduled permitted and I we're spontaneous enough, I would fly out to Calif. just for lunch. I have gone through the "Very Bad Wig Days" and even spending over a $1000.00 to get a special molded fit for human hair. Only it was my very worst experience since my hair loss from at least 15 yrs. now. I like many others have many stories but, life goes on only in a more fashionable way now.
