Welcome to this episode of Alopecia Life. September is Alopecia Awareness Month, and today's guest is Frank Cornine. Frank was a teenager when his hair started falling out. Affter a decade, he found a local support group, and soon realized there wasn't something that specifically shed light on alopecia and what boys and men were specifically experiencing. Frank started the Alopecia Connection podcast earlier this year, and is looking forward to sharing interviews with men and boys, and others who are living with alopecia in order to connect each other through story. 

*More about Frank. - Frank Cornine is the host of Alopecia Connection, an interview-based podcast highlighting the stories of people living with alopecia.  Living in the Boston area, Frank has had alopecia universalis for over 20 years, beginning at the age of 17.  Frank began Alopecia Connection as a platform to publish a wide variety of alopecia stories to help those new to or struggling with the condition.  In his experience, discussing our shared experiences and connecting is a key component to moving through the feelings of isolation that can come with alopecia. 

Thank you for sharing your time with me and Frank today. The links to his socials and to his podcast are listed here in the show notes.
