Watch: Jada Pinkett Smith shares her personal health challenge

Ever feel that? If you point (it) out first about yourself, it will somehow diffuse the conversation from starting.

It is like…what I said was the statement. On to the next…!

 

Your own challenges…sometimes, you may feel they are small “compared to someone else”, so you do not talk them. You have found ways to live with it and in turn, you may have even discovered ways to be More Than You Believed Yourself To Be!

A manini to me (now) issue: alopecia. There are two little blank spots in the back of my head and you can see them when I pile my hair atop my head.

Funnily enough, it is my white and grey hairs that prevent me from wearing my hair that way outside of my home!

 

Several years ago, a hairstylist asked me if anyone brought it to my attention as she handed me a mirror, spun my chair, and lifted my hair up. I noticed my tiny bald patch before though shrugged it off. It was just how my hair grew, or in this case, did not grow.

 

In this Instagram post, actor/producer/director Jada Pinkett Smith smiled and said, “…I thought I’d just share it so y’all not asking any questions…”, which I appreciate!
