(Indianapolis, Indiana) At an age when fashion is all the rage, teenagers base their personalities not only in regards to who they are, but also how they look. Olivia Rusk of Indianapolis bases her fashion on a condition called Alopecia. This condition which leaves Olivia without the hair that most teenage girls spend hours getting just right, is not a problem for her. She is who she is and that is her message for those who also have this condition. With the help of some friends and family, Olivia stars in a music video that is meant to help give those teen girls that have this condition a sense of who they are and what they could be. The video can be seen at the following link.
