   From hair loss to Hair Loss Pride: A chat with Tami Wong

   In this week’s episode of Mom Camp: Around the Campfire, I’m joined by Tami Wong, founder of Hair Loss Pride. Hair loss is something so many women experience, yet few of us talk about openly. It often shows up quietly, wrapped in shame, fear, and the belief that we’re the only ones going through it. This chat was incredibly powerful—not just because of her story, but because of what she’s built in response to it. In this episode, Tami shares her journey with alopecia, which began in her teens, and reflects on the years she spent hiding her hair loss and the impact that secrecy had on her confidence and sense of self. What moved me most was how Tami has transformed her lived experience into meaningful support for other women. Through one-on-one coaching, wig and topper consultations, and community gatherings, she is creating the kind of space so many women wish had existed when they were first navigating hair loss—a space rooted in empathy, education, and connection. We talk about the many forms of alopecia, hair loss related to postpartum changes and perimenopause, and the identity shifts that can come with it all. This episode is a powerful reminder that when one woman shares her story out loud, it creates room for others to feel seen, supported, and less alone.
