The 28-year-old revealed she was suffering with androgenic alopecia also known as female pattern hair loss and is a condition common in both men and women.

For women, the hair loss usually starts with thinness on top of the head, jut like Hannah had.

There are various reasons this sort of hair loss occurs but the most common in women is hormonal imbalances.

Hannah first showed off the bald patches in her hair from a year ago – you could visibly see where her hair loss was in the back and top of her head.

She then showed how her hair is looking now – and her locks looked thick and healthy once more.

Hannah then revealed the products she was using that really worked to grow her hair back.

“So I’m coming up to my year anniversary of taking Oral Minoxidil,” she captioned the post.

“And I’m two months into my Spironolactone journey.

“Happy with the results but looking forward to seeing what 6 months on Spiro looks like!”

Hannah revealed she was going through a dermatologist for her treatment but there is a way to get your hands on Oral Minoxidil.

Hair growth company Manual offer a monthly prescription of Oral Minoxidil for just £15 a month.

All you have to do is take one tablet a day and you should begin to see results in a few months.

Minoxidil is a proven treatment that works for hair loss and can be applied to the scalp or taken orally.

The clip posed to her TikTok account @hannahshairlossjourney quickly went viral with over 600k views and 8,000 likes.

Everything you need to know about hair loss

Marie Nieuwoudt, a Group Education Manager at CLOUD NINE told Fabulous everything you need to know regarding hair loss.

What are the common causes of hair loss?

Marie explained: “There are so many reasons why someone may face hair loss.

“The number one reason is usually hormonal changes or underlying health conditions (like thyroid conditions), and stress of
course also plays a big part in changes to your hair health.

“But another very common day-to-day cause is excessive damage to your hair created by mistakes in your styling routines – and this a
big one to be aware of for people who are regularly applying heat to their hair!

“It’s important to know the right temperature for your hair type when using styling tools, as this is essential in reducing unintentional heat damage.

“I also see a lot of people facing hair loss resulting from hereditary conditions, which are passed down from generation to generation.”

What are the best hairstyles people should try to reduce their hair loss?

According to Marie: “Less is more when it comes to hair loss! It’s important to be gentle with your hair, so a low-maintenance style that limits pulling on your scalp will be your best option.

“Putting your hair up in a tight ponytail or adding hair clips can cause stress points at the roots.

“Instead, try leaving your hair down, or out.

“You’re not limited in your options, but it pays to be intentional with your hair styling. Using tools which limit damage to your hair is vital.

“Discussing your concerns with a hairdresser or hair loss specialist is also a great way to find styles that suit your specific needs, whilst still making sure you look and feel your best.”

How long does it take for hair loss to stop?

If you’re itching to know when your hair will grow back, Marie confirmed: “Hair loss is a personal journey – and it’s different for everyone, so it’s very difficult to put exact timings on this process.

“Every head of hair is unique, and so too is your hair loss experience.

“As always, you can speak to a professional hairdresser or trichologist about your specific concerns and hair changes, and they’ll be able to help you manage those expectations.

“I can’t emphasise enough how important it is to be kind to your hair. Most people treat their hair quite roughly, and this is something you definitely want to avoid when dealing with hair loss in particular.

“Make sure you’re choosing products and styling routines that you know are good for your hair, rather than causing additional damage.”

People were quick to praise her results and thank her for the glimmer of hope as they battled their own hair loss.

One person wrote: “You encouraged me to start.”

Another commented: “Hey! Congratulations!!! That’s an amazing result!”

“This gives me hope for my hair,” penned a third.

Meanwhile a fourth said: “Great results. Hope you’re doing ok. Your hair looks fantastic.”

“Incredible!” claimed a fifth.

Someone else added: “This gives me a little hope! I’m one week into oral minoxidil and my hair looks like your before.”

Eerie moment Diddy says 16-year-old Justin Bieber ‘knows’ to stay quiet about what ‘strange friends’ do at star’s house

THIS is the eerie moment Diddy says that Justin Bieber, just 16 at the time, “knows” to stay quiet abut what the rapper’s “strange friends” do at his house.

A resurfaced clip from 2011 shows the producer, real name Sean Combs, and the young singer on US talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Combs, then 42, was sitting next to a teen Justin Bieber when the duo was asked what their relationship was about and if they were collaborating on music.

Describing Justin as like his “little brother,” Diddy answered that they had become friends “in a strange way” and that he was comfortable calling him for advice.

The music tycoon went on to say that the record industry was a close-knit family and that they had Justin covered from industry vultures.

Given his talent, Diddy called Justin “genuinely a nice person”.

He added: “He’s one of the greatest kids you could ever know.”

With a smile on his face, Bieber shook Diddy’s hand and told Jimmy that the CEO of Bad Boy Records had purchased a Lamborghini for him, but it hadn’t arrived yet.

When Jimmy asked Diddy about when Justin should expect the nice car, Diddy responded with a startling statement that doesn’t seem to have aged well.

He said: “[Justin] had the Lambo for a day or two and he had access to the house, and he knows better than to be talking about the things that he does with Big Brother Puff on national television.”

Combs, now 54, has since been charged with racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution after his arrest in September.

Diddy entered a not guilty plea to the federal charges, which may result in a lengthy prison sentence.

The disgraced rapper was twice denied bail and is now being held at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in New York City as he awaits trial.

For more than a decade, the billionaire rapper used to invite Hollywood‘s A-listers to his legendary bashes.

None of the celebrities in attendance to Diddy’s parties have been accused of any wrongdoing.

There is also no suggestion that any celebrities or partygoers were aware of the music mogul’s alleged abuse.

It comes as Sean “Diddy” Combs is set to be hit with dozens of new allegations of sexual assault in a slew of civil lawsuits – but his lawyer has strongly denied the claims.

Attorney Tony Buzbee said he is representing 120 accusers – including one who claims he was just nine years old when he was allegedly abused by the rapper – and warned: “the names will shock you.”

Buzbee, who is based in Texas, said during a press conference on Tuesday that the allegations involve “many powerful people” and “many dirty secrets.”

He also noted that his team has “pictures, video and texts” to back up the claims.

Meanwhile, a team of detectives reportedly arrived in London last week after concerns were raised that the musician may have abused women in the UK.

Combs had been seen in London on regular occasions during his 30-year reign as a top music boss to upcoming artists.

Appearing on talk shows, movie sets and for a number of business trips to the English capital.

He had even rubbed shoulders with royalty and musical legends.

It’s not thought any of the celebrities or royals seen around Combs were involved in any of the activities he is now being investigated for. 

The team of US detectives currently in the UK is reportedly being led by Damian Williams – the same prosecutor who built a successful case against Jeffrey Epstein‘s right hand woman Ghislaine Maxwell.

A source told The Mirror: “Outside of the States, he enjoyed no place more than the UK.

“Given the huge amount of time he spent in London, there are concerns that the alleged offending was not confined to America’s shores. 

“Prosecutors are imploring anyone in the UK who may have information they feel could help the investigation to get in touch.”

What happened during Sean Combs' 'freak offs'?

Sean Combs' infamous drug-fueled freak offs, first revealed by his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura's lawsuit in November 2023, have become a central narrative of the indictment, which alleges:

  • The music mogul “manipulated women to participate in highly orchestrated performances of sexual activity with male commercial sex workers.”
  • Freak offs “occurred regularly, sometimes lasted multiple days, and often involved multiple commercial sex workers.”
  • Combs “distributed a variety of controlled substances to victims, in part to keep the victims obedient and compliant.”
  • He and the victims “typically received IV fluids to recover from the physical exertion and drug use” after the freak offs.
  • Cops “seized various Freak Off supplies, including narcotics and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant” from his homes in Los Angeles and Miami.
  • Combs “hit, kicked, threw objects at, and dragged victims, at times, by their hair,” during and separate from the freak offs, which “often resulted in injuries that took days or weeks to heal.”
  • He also used the “sensitive, embarrassing, and incriminating recordings” that he made during freak offs as “collateral to ensure the continued obedience and silence of the victims.”
