You definitely shouldn’t feel insecure about sharing this Saff, it’s great that you have though as so many girls / women suffer with it! We all have something, every single one of us x
i don't normally comment on videos but i just want to say, thank you so much for being open and honest about this, i feel like a lot of influencers wouldn't be as open about it. sending love to you xx
so proud of you for being so honest & open about this! you shouldn’t feel insecure saff, you will help so many other people who has or is experiencing this! Hope ur okay angel 👼🏻💗xx
Yes so proud brave courage thanks saff dont feel insecure at all have something with up mentallly or physically its how strong we are to deal with it
I bleached my hair and had extensions for 13 years my hair was destroyed and I had alopecia, I went back to my natural colour which is black and stopped getting extensions. My hair is now to my waist and so healthy took about 3 years 💖
Saff! I also have underactive thyroid and hair loss. I’ve been working in the nhs throughout the covid pandemic so with me putting my hair up continuously, not using heat protect etc has really made my hair suffer. I also felt so ashamed and uncomfortable within myself when I first found out, however you will get through this!! I’m on medication now and my confidence is slowly but surely coming back thank goodness. Sending you lots of love ❤️❤️
I had traction alopecia when I got box braids for the first time. I have 3B texture hair so I thought my hair will be fine with handling the braids, but I was wrong. I got tiny sore spots all over my scalp and lost hair in a small section. It has been 4 years since and my hair did grow back just fine like 2 years without treatment. I hope you are feeling ok, believe me when I tell you this is VERY common it's just that many women do not talk about it. Thank you for using your platform x
Hope ur ok Saff. ❤️ I’m sorry to hear this. I’m always here for u no matter what. 🫶 you are glowing and amazing. stay strong ✨ I love u soooo much. 💖xxxx
I currently shaved my head due to my severe hair loss and it's awful. I did buy some great wigs and sometimes I flaunt the bald. I am glad you went to the doc and got it all figured out.
So proud of you for speaking about this so many more people will look up to you! Your amazing! I’m so sorry your going through this 🤍
Be proud, it’s nice to hear an influencer talk about and share about alapisha, I suffer from alapisha and it’s awful but don’t let
It bring you down carry on being you ❤️
Thank you for being so honest and vulnerable, it will really help people with any issues to feel normal.
My hubby has alopecia totalis - no hair anywhere anymore - he said it was a really tough journey, but he rocks it now 🥰
Sending you love ❤️ 🌻
I lost most of my hair last year and had to shave my head and it was so hard because I just never wanted to leave the house because I was embarrassed and I had to always wear hats and cried every time I saw it lol
Thank you for sharing this and normalising hair loss!
I have alopecia areata from stress on my degree and have now lost around 45% of my hair and it’s very refreshing seeing someone my age also talking about this as none of my friends or anyone have experienced hair loss this young. Just a quick thank you really 😊
I got diagnosed with under-active thyroid 3 months ago after nearly a year of the doctors not having a clue what was wrong with me. Had the exact same symptoms, hair loss and tiredness being a real struggle for me. Now on medication so hopefully there’s an improvement! xx
My mum has an under active thyroid and has hair loss but she seems to not be able to grow her hair back x
@@kelseybray654 Getting the correct balance of T3/T4 and TSH levels is a must which can be a tricky thing, also looking at your minerals/vitamins intake - checking things like the absorption or iron/vitamin D and specifically your B vitamins - I take a high dose of Biotin and use regain with my hypothyroidism to help my hair stay thick and reduce alopecia from occurring after previous incidents of it happening in the past and that always/has helped. :)
I had the same, and it was frustrating because you know something is wrong, but being told they don't know why, but finally on medication and feel so much better ☺️
Angel, don’t feel insecure, no matter what you’re still beautiful inside & out, my mam suffers with alopecia & seeing someone i love go through it breaks my heart, but seeing how strong she is each n every day makes me idolise her more n more every day!! You’re amazing girl🤍 my mam actually suffers with her Thyroids too it’s crazy seeing how much of an impact they actually have in your life!
Its mental how common it is now I've had it since I was 10 years old and now 26 so good to see people talk about it
Oh Saffron ❤️ you're brave talking about this. I hope yours hair is growing back nicely. Lots of love xxx
I lost all my hair apart from a small part following a shock, also my eyebrows too. It grew back as thick as it was before but it was a horrible experience. I saw a Tricologist too but they didn’t know what to suggest so I wore hats as I hated wearing a wig. It will grow back, bless you. Xx
Your amazing strong person :) I’ve watched you for a long time and always enjoyed your videos
Make me smile ..
I remember you on strictly loved you every step of the way .
Hope you see this comment xx
Oh god Saffron I'm so sorry to hear about this with your hair, Deffo keep putting that heat protection in your hair!! I was shocked that you had never done so before 🙈 hope everything gets better soon! Take care girl 💖 xxx
LOVE YOUU!! You are SOOO incredibly strong! I also love how organised your wardrobe is!! Xx
saff I am so envious of your gym wardrobe! also wishing you all the best, can't imagine how hard and stressful this has been for you but hoping your hair starts recovering soon xx
omg saff i hope you’re okay stay strong we all love you xxxx
Hope you’re okay 💗💗 sending you lots of love xx
As a hairstylist pls don’t be embarrassed by this, I have so many clients with this and it’s so normal it’s crazy.
Super proud of you for speaking up 🤍 it must be so hard but your super brave❤️ so many people will appreciate this xx
Love you! Super proud ❤
You are the most honest and open person ever Saff using your platform for all the right reasons! I am sure you have put many peoples mind at ease sharing this! Great video!
Love you 😍😍💖💖💖🥰🥰🥰
I had this, a bald patch in the exact same place. Went to multiple doctor appointments, had multiple blood tests and all came back with nothing sinister. My hair has now fully grown back!
love you saffron!! 💗💗 stay strong always! Thank you for motivating me to start my own channel xxx
My dad had alopecia… I have full awareness of how alarming this is. I would like to say thank you for bringing more awareness to the condition. Most people don’t know or understand what it is. Bless you Saffron.
So good to speak out about this, well done Saffron 🙌🏼💖
So proud of you sharing this saff, your not alone with this hair condition most people mainly girls get it so don't feel insecure your hair will grow back as normal x ❤️
I’m so glad you posted this. I have been having problems with my hair for about 2 years now. I lost a patch of hair close to the back of my neck and I was completely distraught, I was so scared and had no idea why. It eventually started growing back which was a great sign and when I brush my hair each day I notice it getting longer and longer, it’s finally starting to catch up with my normal long hair! I saw a dermatologist and they couldn’t give me a clear answer, they said it could be genetics or stress so it wasn’t reassuring that they didn’t know. Since then it has happened once more but at a much smaller scale and I’ve just had skin irritation, redness and a few pimples in my hair from time to time. I have never even heard of traction alopecia before so it’s really interesting to know more about that as that is what it could have been.
I was at an all time low when the first time happened, it’s absolutely devastating but everything always ends up being better than what you think!
I currently use a steroid shampoo once a week and medicated oil for when it feels red and a little sore.
Xx
Loving your content at the moment, keep up the hard work ❤️ sorry to hear you have alopecia, hope it gets better for you xx
Don’t feel insecure about sharing things like this!!! It helps people 😊
Oh Saff I hope you are okay you're so brave even posting about this to millions of people, this doesn't make you any less of a person if not makes you even better showing how strong you are and you are so lucky to have such a supporting family and supportive audience, lysm xxx
Aw bless you ❤ so many girls will appreciate you sharing this. It also shows, even people who seem to be living their best lives and building the home of their dreams (and many other peoples dreams) are struggling with something no one knows about. Doesnt matter if your in a council house or a gorgeous, huge home, with a laundry shoot😂 everyone has their struggles. Your gorgeous 😍
I can’t wait for the wardrobe tour 😁😁💕
Love seeing your mum on your vlogs😁 Great that you’re bringing haircare awareness to people 👍 as a hairdresser I’m constantly lecturing people to take more care! 😘xxx
So proud of you saffron for sharing your journey with your hair and you shouldn’t feel ashamed of yourself because of this or insecure it is natural and should be embraced ❤️ you are a strong and brave woman you’ve got this girl , stay strong love you Saff! Xx
I can completely relate saffron as I have exactly the same ❤️. I have been wearing clip in extensions since I was 14 (I’m now 24) and I have lots of little bald patches. It gets me down hence why I feel I have to continue to wear the extensions.. it’s a vicious cycle. You’re not alone! Sending you lots of love 💕 xxxxx
You shouldn't feel insecure we all have little things Philip Kingsley roducts are amazing I have underactive thyroid I take levothyroxine it makes you feel better hope your ok Xx

Thank you for talking about your hair experience.You are amazing.I love your gym shark collection.I’m looking forward to seeing the house tour.😍
Underactive thyroid gang! ✌🏻 I got diagnosed with hashimotos disease and underactive thyroid a few years ago now and it did just feel like a relief to know there's actually an answer and a reason for all my struggles 🤣 doesn't make them any easier sometimes, but the meds deffo do help and I couldn't imagine not taking them! Very grateful for them. I remember I forgot to put my prescription in once and I was out of meds for like a week and I really did start to feel it by the end of that week! It's wild and I feel ya pain girl but you got this 💪🏻 xxx
Honesty nothing worse , I spent years with weaves so tight I lost a lot of hair especially when I bleached my hair , now I only wear clip in extensions when I seriously have to , havnt had extensions in or my hair dyed since last Christmas and I still only have collarbone length hair
I have areata alopecia. I got it at 21 and I'm 27 now. I was so upset for years, now it's just a part of me and it's not something I really think about. I feel for you cause at first it's always a shock. Thankfully yours will come back! Your hair is gorgeous either way. Thanks for raising awareness to it ☺️
Thanks for sharing this Saffron, having Traction Alopecia doesn’t define you so please don’t feel self conscious about it. Sharing your experience will inevitably help others in similar or same situation as you too. It’s brave of you to share that with us!
i suffer with scalp psoriasis and have exsctly the same spots of balding, it got to the point i couldn’t even have my hair up as you could see the huge patches of hair! so glad and happy to see you share this to bring awareness 💖
omg saff! hope you are okay babe 🥰
Your eyes are so gorgeous I love the colour
You definitely shouldn’t feel insecure this happened to me and my cousin the best to use on the patch is black seed oil in time it will slowly grow back but it speeds up the process a bit you are beautiful and no one is perfect keep up the good work and enjoy life.
Love
Shabana xx
I have Alopecia Areata where I had symptoms due to stress and anxiety at the age of 9 I was diagnosed with alopecia at the age of 10 which over the years got worse. At the age of 13 I was told that I needed to shave my hair because of how thin and unhealthy it was. To this day I still struggle with my hair and I’m nearly 18. What I have discovered in the last 8 years is that cut your hair shorter maybe not to short but enough to lighten your head. So for any of you out there who is struggling with alopecia it isn’t the worse thing in the world. I wore wigs for some time and now I only lose my hair when I’m in super stressful situations and when my mental health is at the worse.
Oh no love uou saf keep glowing 💅💘🕊
Stay safe babes stay strong
There is also a product you can use that you basically put on the patch, and it distributes tiny little fibres that actually looks like hair. Its really realistic :)
Never been so early for a video xx
Saffron, I don't know if you'll see this but thank you for making this video and talking about your alopecia. I saw a dermatologist a couple of years ago and she diagnosed me with alopecia areata/telogen effluvium the first time I went then I saw another dermatologist and she said she wasn't sure what it was. I'd never heard of a trichologist until you mentioned in this video that you saw one so I googled trichology and trichology vs dermatology and I think me seeing a trichologist could help so thank you
When I said the second dermatologist didn't know what it was I meant she didn't know what condition I had like whether it's alopecia areata or telogen effluvium
Don't feel insecure still beautiful as ever hope you feel better.❤️
My three year old sister has an under active thyroid and she has been taking medication since she was 2 months old ,she also has to have lots of blood tests, she is a little trooper I love her do much also she gets cold very easily so I hope this helps people to understand what hypothyroidism is
Am sorry I hear about your speaking about your hair and everything else happening in your life my hair falls out aswell and.I haven't went to talk to the doctor about it yet x
Awwhh girl your beautiful, hope you recover quickly xx ❤️
love u saff💗💗stay strong babe x
I've recently picked up that I've got alopecia areata and had to get steroids injected into my head. I too felt insecure about it but i was told to just think positive thoughts and not to worry too much. Sending positive vibes and everything will be okay ☺
Thank you for being open and honest saff loved the video x
You can do it, just keep practicing. I do it with my trainer and am 30 yrs older than you. You are strong and beautiful. I am so proud of you for going back even when you were tired. Yes, they are calluses. You can wear gloves to prevent them. Love the tip of adding protein powder to your oatmeal, great idea. Your microwave silver/gold combination. The espresso looks great on you. Yes,love the gym clothes that don’t fit so tight on our insecure days. ❤️🇺🇸🌹💜✝️🌸
Just ordered the Philip Kingsley product ! Thank you for your video! I damaged my scalp from a fall when I was a teenager and I’ve got a small scar (10p sized where I have hair loss) super self conscious ! Luckily it can be covered. Stay strong !
Thank you for sharing I have been through the same and also hair thinning it is so upsetting xx
When you do the pullups and chin-ups you need to keep your legs vertically underneath you even though they’re on the band
Had alopecia on/off due to specific auto-immune conditions I've had from around 7/8 years; I recommend having a blood test to look at perhaps your vitamin/mineral intake to make sure it's not Alopecia Areata /as well - seeming a simple blood test could help you figure that out more than anything (besides the under active thyroid)? Although given how you've dyed/styled your hair over the years, used extensions etc. it's likely more leaning towards traction alopecia due to the way the follicles have broken/snapped off because of the strain/stress placed on them - if you immediately stop colouring your hair (or reduce the amount of time between so when you do dye it/opt for non-ammonia products), wear your hair down more/lose, don't put heat on it, wash it less often - I use regaine during flares as that's really good for any sorts of alopecia/hair thinning), regularly trim the ends of your hair, use the correct brush to brush your hair with - and brush it from the ends to roots and not doing so when it's wet either, that should reduce hair thinning/promote hair growth and prevent this from happening again; another thing that was also a life saver for me and always has been, is taking biotin supplements.
My friend was told she had exactly the same! She had a lot less hair! She stopped bleaching & using straighteners & all her hair grew back! X
I remember going through a stressful period during my university dissertation. I was doing my hair one day and as i parted my hair my mum noticed i had a bald patch. I made a drs appointment and was diagnosed with alopecia areata! So thank you for speaking up about a diagnosis that many of us suffer from both men and women. My hair has grown back but i often get hair loss. I just use lots of hair oil so my scalp gets massaged and helps the hair growth.
Well done saffron for speaking about this u should be proud of yourself ❤️ nioxin is amazing to help hair to grow x
I got diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 2016 after a year of blood tests trying to figure out what was wrong with me.
I had ALL the symptoms too.
The hair loss, cold hands & feet, emotions (and random crying), dry skin patches, the weight issues, and THE EXHAUSTION..
I’ve been on medication since then and wow it sure has changed my life, but I still definitely feel my symptoms strongly some weeks, and others not.
Sucks so bad as this is just how life will be now. But I’ve come to terms with it.. ❤️
I have an under active thyroid and the tablets from the doctor practically saved me! I would come home from school and just go straight to bed! I could never even watch a film at night in the dark without falling asleep! I'm excited for you to have a new lease of life
Love u saff
Also have you thought of having BIAB, builders gel on your nails rather than acrylics?? Your natural nails will grow with it and keep strength without the damage that acrylics can do.
congrats on your new home thankyou for being so open and honest your doing amazing girl, are you going to be doing a full house tour at some point ? the house is looking stunning what we have seen, would your mum ever start her own youtube channel ?xx
Thank you so much for speaking out about this. It is so brave❤️
I understand how u feel, last year my hair fell out in chunks, had to shave part of my hair to make it look less patchy, it was because I was severely anemic, hopefully ur meds will help x keep smiling x
gives me anxierty about ariana grandes hair
I know how you feel I got told by my hairdresser in March a month before my wedding I have a bald spot on my crown size of an egg. I was so worried so I went and bought hair loss and strengthening shampoo and a month later it had started to cover over I am 5 months since finding out and it's grown 4inches so pleased. And mine was caused by wearing a bun on my head. Xxx
I have an under active thyroid and I have alopecia totalis (total hair loss) feels nice to know I’m not alone with this
I never usually comment on videos but about 5 years ago my hair thinned out and I kept getting it cut to thicken up and now it’s long and back to being as thick as it was when I was younger! So sorry this has happened to you but it will grow back and don’t let it knock your confidence it’ll be okay 💜
I have under active thyroid and in the last six months developed the alopecia like yours but on a bigger patch at the back of my head. So many people have these, does shock you st first but your not alone x
So good to see you speak about this nothing to feel insecure about. My hair is getting better than it was but it’s not as thick as it used to be a few years ago I started suffering with my hair getting thinner I went to doctors and I got sent for a biopsy on my head it come back nothing serious but he said Do you stress about things and it turned out I had telogen effluvium. I try to look at it this way nothing wrong if people see your hair like this it can’t be helped my hair is getting better but not the same as it used to be x
I also have a Underactive thyroid it’s a nightmare just make sure you take your medicine love your videos xx
You are beautiful you would still be beautiful bald. You are so brave for sharing this, I pray for healing for you and glad you have answers I too have interactive thyroid I also have pcos
Which also causes hairless, I have found that for me pig thyroid helps much better than levothyroxin probably because it's all natural
I have Alopecia due to stress and whenever I get very stressed out I lose my hair. It happened to me the first time and I lost a massive chunk right on top of my head. I would highly recommend taking Biotin and using the whole Olaplex range to help with the hair growth. Xx
I lost a lot of hair with bleach and hair extensions. I stripped it right back to my natural hair, no extensions and used lots of olaplex products and Lee Stafford hair grow leave in conditioner and my hair is now so full,so soft and so long
I have alopecia ariata. Mine is due to stress triggered when my dad died. This is now going to happen any time I get stressed. Thank you for talking about if
I know it’s not the same but I’ve had trichotillomania since 2020 and so I’m definitely familiar with hair loss and i know how hard it is and how self conscious it can make you. To saffron and anyone else who suffers any time of hair loss, you can be beautiful with or without hair and it will all get better soon :)
You’re amazing and make great videos. Stay strong.
