Hair loss isn’t just about losing strands. It’s about battling insecurities, losing confidence, and, for me, facing the darkest parts of my mental health. In this deeply personal episode on Heidi’s Lane, I sit down with Carly Klein, the woman who has been my lifeline through eight years of navigating androgenetic alopecia. I’ve shed tears, panicked over every strand in the shower, and wondered if I’d ever feel like myself again. Carly’s unwavering support and expertise have been my saving grace. Together, we unpack the emotional toll of hair loss, the myths, and the powerful treatments that gave me hope again. If you’ve ever felt alone in this battle, or know someone who has, this one’s for you.
