The British model revealed her 16-year secret

The model, who has been wearing a wig for 16 years due to hair loss, finally revealed the secret and was surprised by the reaction of those around her. According to Gadin.Net, this was reported by the "Mirror". Laura Matias, 29, of Manning, UK, has suffered from "universal alopecia" since the age of 13 (a disease that causes hair loss not only on the head but also on the body). According to him, as a teenager, he was ashamed of his baldness and hid it with the help of a wig.
"I thought that only I had such a problem, because at that time there was no social network," said the model. He says he hated looking in the mirror at the time. The model has not removed her wig for 16 years, but began working at home during the quarantine period due to the coronavirus pandemic, so she did not use it every day. After a while, the model decided to share her story on social networks and shared a picture without a wig. He admitted that he was horrified at first, but in the end received a lot of compliments from users. This support inspired Matias. He has been leaving the house without a wig for many days and encourages women with similar problems not to hide their differences. In addition, Matias is an ambassador for the charity Models of Diversity: she encourages other girls with similar illnesses to accept their looks.
