This is Rebecca Lerch's story...
Rebecca Lerch was going through a difficult time in her marriage in 2016-2017. In early 2018, she decided to end her marriage and move out of her family home. Rebecca was also working on a big project at her job that required a lot of extra hours. Around this time, she started to notice that her hair was thinning. She researched online and found that many other women were going through the same thing. She found some inspiration in these women and decided to embrace her hair loss instead of trying to hide it. She bought a wig and started wearing it.
