Is it ever acceptable to laugh at someone dealing with hair loss?

I used to work in a company where one person noticed I was wearing hair concealer on my crown and openly made comments & told other people about it, making me feel like s***.

Fast forward 12 months, the guy went from nw1 to nw3 in the space of months. Justice was definitely served - but even then I didnt laugh because I know how it feels to not think it will ever happen to you and then get slapped in the face by aggressive hairloss out of nowhere.

Honestly speaking, one of the best things that has happened to me since experiencing hairloss is my ability to empathise with people, whether they are ugly, bald or disabled etc.

wish more people were like that. I have to say, I'm the same, since my hair loss misery started I empathise with people more then I used to.

now it's clear to me why some people act a certain way. I hear people gossiping about others, oh she/he never goes any where or he/she doesn't say anything... Maybe those people have something they're embarassed about and hide from the outside world. You only understand this when you're one of them. Sadly I never had a clue I would become one of them.

When i I was a kid I used to stare at women with hair loss, now I'm being stared at.:(
wow, Im making myself more depressed thinking of this!
