Meet the faces of our community
who are helping to tell our story.

 

At Living Dappled, we’re all about women helping women thrive with vitiligo. And that means partnering closely with our own community to tell our collective story. Because the “vitiligo” story doesn’t belong to one of us–it belongs to all of us. These women with vitiligo are bringing their authenticity, vulnerability and confidence to our feeds—and our community.
