GAIL MABALANE ON LIVING WITH ALOPECIA

-

Actor and media personalit­y GAIL MABALANE (37) has been candid about her struggle with hair loss.

“This is way more prevalent than we think,” the Rockville actress wrote in a caption of a photo of herself which shows her losing her hair.

“From receding hairlines to bald patches to hair loss that starts in the middle of the head to scalp sensitivit­y. We (women especially) have just become so good at hiding it and suffering/fighting it in silence.”

The mother of two subsequent­ly launched a haircare brand, Ethnogenic­s. In the post, she added that she started the brand because she struggled to find products to help with her hair’s regrowth.
