My best friend’s wedding is this weekend, and right after that another invite showed up, and now it feels like every friend I have decided to get married in the same stretch of weeks! I’m just trying to keep my calendar (and my skin) together at this point.
Of course my flare picked now to show up along my hairline and behind one ear, which is exactly the spot you can’t hide when someone’s doing your hair for a whole day of photos. Mine runs more scalp/seborrheic than classic eczema, so I never quite know how to even bring it up with a hairstylist without making it a whole thing.
Between work, the kids, and now wedding weekends stacking on top of each other, I don’t really have room to stress over how my hairline looks in someone else’s photos, but somehow I still am. Mostly coping by sneaking off to a movie alone whenever I get an hour, it’s the only quiet I get lately.
Does anyone else’s skin flare right before big events like this? How do you get through the actual day without feeling like you’re constantly hiding one side of your head?
