On International Women’s Day, we honor the strength, resilience, and courage found in women of every age – including the young girls who show us what bravery truly looks like.
The Diagnosis
Searria was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata at the age of 7. This type of autoimmune disease attacks your hair follicles and causes spotty hair loss – it also steals your confidence.
Her caring parents were at a loss with how to help their young, beautiful daughter, who had lost her self-worth and spirit, along with her hair. Then they found HairClub and our charitable program for children who are suffering from hair loss, the HairClub for Kids® Program (HCFK).
Her HairClub Solution
Luckily, Searria’s parents discovered HCFK right before she started middle school, and together we found the best solution for Searria’s hair loss: our exclusive #hairreplacement system called Xtrands+®.
That was a gamechanger. “Getting Xtrands+ was liberating! Life-changing!” Searria added, “I could finally breathe. I felt like it gave me the confidence I needed…to feel normal.”
Even years later, as she recalled the day when she first saw herself in the mirror wearing Xtrands+, she was all smiles. “I was like flipping my hair, curling my hair, I was so excited! Like, yeah, I’ve got hair!”
We all know that kids tend to be rather rough on their things, like clothing and toys – and that includes hair. But that didn’t matter with Xtrands+. She could shower, swim, play, and windy days were no longer a problem. Her worries about her hair were gone.
This International Women’s Day, we celebrate that kind of transformation – the moment a girl sees herself not through the lens of loss, but through possibility. When confidence is restored, futures feel bigger. At HairClub, we’re honored to be a part of journeys like Searria’s — helping women and girls strut into a world with strength, joy, and the freedom to shine in their own beautiful way.
If you’re experiencing hair loss, you don’t have to navigate it alone. At HairClub, we’ve spent decades supporting people at every stage of their journey, serving more than 500,000 individuals since 1976.
From hair regrowth options to fully customizable solutions like our Xtrands+ solution, and even hair transplant services**, our approach is always personal – because no two stories are the same.
If and when you’re ready, consider starting with a complimentary consultation. It’s simply a conversation – a chance to explore your options, ask questions, and discover what feels right for you. Whatever path you choose, you deserve to feel confident, supported, and empowered to shine in your own way.
