TV presenter Melanie Sykes has shown off her completely bald head – just days after opening up on her hair loss.
The star, 55, has been battling alopecia and days ago claimed that she was now “two-thirds bald”.
But taking to Instagram this morning, Mel showed that she had no hair left at all.
The telly star flashed a smile in the selfie that she simply captioned as: “Loss + Gain = Life.”
Her brave new post comes amid Mel’s honesty about her recent health issues and the impact to has taken on her.
She previously explained how the autoimmune condition has progressed over time and had left her with noticeable bald patches across her head.
Mel first opened up about facing life with alopecia last year.
She told how she was in “so much pain” after spending much of it unwell.
She said: “I’ve got an autoimmune condition, I am losing my hair, I keep having crazy inflammation all over and I am working on healing.
“In the last three months, I’ve done a meditation teacher training course.
“I was too ill to finish it like. The last two days of it I couldn’t do.
“It’s meditation teacher training, I don’t necessarily want to teach, but I can do…
“Mostly I’ve been living a very, very very spiritual existence.
“I’m two-thirds bald, really. Every time I say I’m bald I laugh, I don’t know why… Thank god I can laugh.”
Last month, Melanie revealed that her hair had been coming out “really quickly”, after losing hair for more than a year.
She explained to fans how she has been trying on wigs, with her now ditching head scarves because she is keen to “get some hair”.
