Sharing Our Hair Loss Stories | Y

LEMONADA MEDIA
About this episode

For the first time ever, Ricki tells her hair loss story in detail alongside her friend and mentor Y, the founder of The Women’s Hair Loss Project. After Ricki began losing her hair in 1995, Y helped her explore treatment options, shop for wigs, and deal with the emotional turmoil. Y and Ricki swap stories of what it felt like to shave their heads, discuss drugs they took that didn’t work, and talk about how they finally came to a place of acceptance.
