I’ve now been one week pull free – time for celebration!
I pulled one single hair in the whole time, so for me I am still proud of going pull free. Congratulations to anyone else who succeeded for one week, and well done to anyone who managed to go pull free for any length of time.
For now, I’m extending my challenge. One thing I struggle with the most is touching my hair all the time – I just can’t stop. If only I could go ‘touch free’ as well as pull free, but I think it’d be pretty much impossible!
My name's Penny, and I started OnTrich (a trichotillomania blog) to try and raise awareness about hair pulling, and also as a way to help me deal with my own pulling. I'm a 23 year old girl from the UK and I've been pulling for 13 years. Get in touch if you want to chat or need any help - I love meeting people here.
