Very Nearly Almost
Having had alopecia areata since the age of two, Lindsey Sullivan is very nearly almost bald or very nearly almost has a full head of hair. It all depends on how you look at it. Everyone has that thing about them that they have had to learn to love--perhaps they're still struggling with it. Through snippets of her own story and interviews with inspiring guests, Lindsey explores the ups and downs of alopecia areata--and other secret super powers.

Episode 51
In this episode, Lindsey speaks with Sarvesh Rajasekaran. He was diagnosed with alopecia at the formative age of 23. Sarvesh offers so much insight into the male alopecia experience, speaking vulnerably about not being able to share his grief and struggles with hair loss for a long time. As a man, he felt there needed to be "an acceptable level of pain in order to share." He speaks about how his wife became one of his safe spaces to open up about his alopecia. Also, Lindsey and Sarvesh finally get into it: jokes about male pattern baldness simply aren’t funny!
