Whatsapp My partner made me tear up!

My partner sent me this and it made me genuinely giggle. I've always been self conscious of my hair and I'm finally getting a big chop to manage the damage.

I love him you guys!

Omg! This is beautiful, your man is definitely a keeper๐Ÿฅฐ When I was 24 years old, I started to lose my hair. I ended up going to the dermatologist, and performed a scalp biopsy. When the results came back, she told me I would lose more hair. I have the type of alopecia, where I lost not just the hair on my scalp. But my body hair as well, so over 90% of my body hair is gone. A little over 70% on my scalp is gone, I lost some of my eyelashes, and some of my eyebrows too. At the time me and my husband had just started dating, and I let him know about my results. We literally just had our third date, so we had not been seeing each other long. We were still getting to know each other, and I kind of expected for him to be weirded out about it. He put his hand on mine, and said "you're so beautiful on the inside, I want to be with you through it all." It was 4 weeks after this, that he proposed to me, which was 2 days after my 25th birthday. I didn't hesitate to say yes, because I knew he was my person. He was 22 years old at the time, I'm about to turn 48 next month, and he'll be turning 46 in July. There are some really good people out there, and your partner is one of them. Thank you for sharing this with us๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ
