Someone said: ‘This postpartum hair loss is so REAL,’ and one other follower said: ‘Wow thank you for sharing @gabunion 🥰 I so appreciated your transparency on this episode it was an honor to interview you.’

A follower said: ‘Yes 🔥 so much of our identity in the public imagination has not been created by us 🙏🏽 you creating a platform(and products !) can’t wait till tomorrow’s convo.’

A follower said: ‘Omg I started birth control a couple of years ago which triggered non-scarring alopecia and my hair just fell out by the hand full I was so depressed.’

One other commenter said: ‘I have always had extremely thin hair. I have always envied women with thick hair that they could put in a hair band or curl or cut in any style they wanted. After having my daughter 11 years ago it has never been the same. Even thinner and falls out in clumps. I have never had a ponytail or a braid in my 35 years. I have never had a fun cut or color, or curls or updos. I finally just accepted this is what I have and I need to just embrace it! That took 35 years to say! I still wish I could have a ponytail some days lol.’

Someone else posted this: ‘..very well put. something i struggle with daily, having scarring alopecia,’ and another fan said: ‘I love this I will be buying my @flawlessbygu this weekend.’
