Hair Loss and Wigs: What's Really Holding You Back
If you’ve been living with hair loss and want to try wigs, but something keeps stopping you, this episode is for you.I’m not talking about which wig to buy or the perfect brand. This is about the emotional barriers that can keep us frozen. The fear. The shame. The weight of other people’s opinions, before we’ve even taken the first step.I’ve lived with hair loss for 26 years. I’ve worn wigs since 2012. I shaved my head in 2023. And I know how hard it can be to feel like yourself again.
In this episode, I talk candidly about:
•The fear of what other people will think
•The first time I saw myself in the mirror again
•Why wigs aren’t perfect, and that’s okay
•Living the “dual hair life” (bio hair + wigs)
•Why 5% of life (the gym, the beach) shouldn’t block 95% of your freedom
•What made me rip off my wig in public, more than once
•Why the validation you’re waiting for may never come (and why that’s okay)
Wigs aren’t the answer for everyone. But if you want to try them, don’t let fear decide for you.
🖤 Thank you for listening.
