Will Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, has opened up about her experience battling alopecia, according to foreign media reports on December 29. It turned out that Jada had been plagued by alopecia for many years, and bald areas had appeared on the scalp many years ago.
"At this point, I can only smile," the "Matrix" actress said as she ran her fingers across her bare scalp. "As you know, I've been struggling with seizures and suddenly one day I found a big bald patch on my head." It is reported that alopecia is an autoimmune disease, some of which cause large-scale hair loss and accompany it for life, and some of which are alopecia areata is only temporary.
Jada, 50, continued: "So, it's so bald and it's hard to hide. Therefore, I want to share it with everyone in a bright light, so that it is free. Maybe, I'll make myself a little crown. Jada said she would do everything she could to accept the situation.
Jada writes: "I had to make it public so that no one would mistakenly think I had brain surgery or anything else. I will be friends with this bald beauty... That's all! This summer, with the support of her 21-year-old daughter Willow Smith and husband Will Smith, Jada was inspired to shave all her hair.
Jada explained in an Ins post: "Willow persuaded me to do this, it was time to let go, but also to let myself go. But who would have thought that when he was 50 years old, he would light up the whole cabin with his head? It is also another life for yourself. Jada had previously discussed her hair loss on her talk show, Red Table talk. In 2018, Jada said: "It was scary at the beginning. One day, I was in the shower and suddenly a large handful of hair appeared in my hand. I thought, 'Oh my God, am I going bald?' That was the moment in my life when I was really trembling with fear, and it was the reason for my decision to shave my hair now. After making a decision thoroughly, it is also a relief to let yourself go."
