Olivia's New Hair-do!

Olivia has been asking for quite some time now to get her hair cut like Dora. Her hair needed a good trimming anyway, so we decided to cut off about five inches and go for a nice summery bob cut. She loves it! Speaking of Olivia's hair, something peculiar is happening. She is starting to get bald spots, the largest is about the size of a dime on top of her head. Her pediatrician said that that is normally caused by a ringworm type fungus, but there isn't any scaling present, so it doesn't completely match the description of that. She decided to put her on the treatment just to make sure, which is a six week course of this anti-fungal medicine. I made an appointment with a dermatologist for a second opinion and to explore the possibility of it being alopecia. I am however, encouraged by what appears to be some new hair sprouts from that area. Is there anyone else out there that has any experience of this? Especially family members, as alopecia is hereditary. As you can see in this photo, she is wearing a lot of head bands these days out in public to cover these spots. She is also very excited to be wearing her bibs in this photo. I found them in a clearance bin a long time ago. They were so big on her then but not anymore!
