I Lost My Hair After Trauma... Where I Am Now 5 Years Later (My Hair Healing Journey)

I never thought I would be sharing this… but here we are. hahaha And ONLY for you Guys! After experiencing trauma years ago from our tragic car accident, I developed stress-induced hair loss/alopecia. It was sudden, overwhelming, and honestly… something I was difficult to talk about for a long time. For the past three years, I wore protective dreadlock extensions to help preserve what hair I had left. And now… I’ve taken them out. This video is my real, unfiltered update on my hair journey... where I’ve been, what I’ve tried, and why I made the decision to wear my very first wig at 53 years old. While I work on restoring my natural hair using MONAT haircare products, I’m also learning something deeper in this season: Healing isn’t just physical… it’s emotional too. If you’re struggling with hair loss, alopecia, thinning hair, or even just the fear of trying something new like a wig… you are NOT alone. This is me stepping into a new chapter... not hiding, not apologizing, just showing up as I am. And maybe… giving you permission to do the same. 💛 Let me know in the comments: Have you ever struggled with hair loss or considered wearing a wig or a protective hairstyle like dreadlock extensions?
