A Scottish schoolgirl who started to lose her hair before starting school has taken it in her stride after getting a wig from a charity.
Freya Stevens, eight, from Penicuik, Midlothian was diagnosed with a hair loss condition three years ago that her mum originally thought was a scalp infection.
The youngster's mum Nikki Stephens began to notice wisps of her little girl's hair falling out and bald patches three years ago - but had no idea what was causing it.
