INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Ricki Lake on Wednesday posted a picture of her-shaved head on Instagram as she went on to share the pain and trauma she went though due to
hair loss for "most of her adult life"."Liberated and Free, Me
First things first, I am not sick
(THANK GOD.) I am not having a mid-life crisis
nor am I having a mental breakdown, though I have been suffering
Suffering mostly in silence off and on for almost 30 years
AND I am finally ready to share my secret," said.While describing the reason behind the hair loss, she said "Ever since I played Tracy
Turnblad in the original Hairspray back in 1988 and they triple-processed and teased my then healthy virgin hair every 2 weeks during
filming, my hair was never the same".Ricki Lake further said, "In my case, I believe my hair loss was due to many factors, yo-yo dieting,
hormonal birth control, radical weight fluctuations over the years, my pregnancies, genetics, stress, and hair dyes and extensions
Working as talent on various shows and movies, whether DWTS or my talk show, also took its toll on my fine hair"She said, "I got used to
wearing extensions, really just over the last decade
All different kinds, tried them all, the ones that are glued on, the tape-ins, the clip ins, and then into a total hair system that I hated,
and finally to a unique solution that really did work pretty well for me for the last 4 or 5 years
I tried wigs on a few occasions but never could get used to them
It all felt fake and I was super self-conscious and uncomfortable".TheIndianSubcontinent has not verified the content of the source
