Hair bands?
So I’ll be starting my firefighter training course soon, and I’m having a flare up of alopecia, I usually use black root spray to cover it up, but with the sweaty nature of training, I fear I would drip black sweat all down my face.
I wondered if I would be able to wear a thick headband during school? To hide and protect my head, as well as keeping my hair out of my face, as it’s very fine and slips out of ordinary bobbles. If so, who should I contact about this? I feel like as a woman, hiding my hair loss could make me feel a little bit more dignified, but I’m also aware of the strict PPE rules. I’m not sure how to go forward, nervous about who to contact as I don’t want it to seem like I am going to be hard work, but this sudden flare up of hair loss coming back has been quite distressing.
Thanks everyone!!!
