Picture this: you’re knee deep in wash day activities when something stops you cold. Clumps of hair are coming from your scalp as you detangle. 

Dr. Latonya Bias knows that moment intimately. “I noticed strands coming out in my hands,” she recalls. “My edges were disappearing. I just froze.” The plot twist?

“Sometimes knowledge becomes overwhelming because you understand exactly how unpredictable an autoimmune disease can be,” she admits.
