Alopecia Awareness Facts

Alopecia is the second leading cause we see in children experiencing hair loss at Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan, affecting approximately 36% of the wig recipients we serve. 

There are wonderful resources for those with alopecia through Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan and the National Alopecia Areata Foundation. 

If you know of a child in need of our services who has alopecia or another form of hair loss, please refer their family to us. We help everyone, charge nothing and turn no one away. https://www.wigs4kids.org/our-services/wig-creation.html
