In a recent Instagram video posted on her wellness blog, Frenshe, actress Ashley Tisdale opened up about her struggles with alopecia, an autoimmune disorder that causes hair loss. Tisdale also revealed that she first noticed her hair thinning in her early 20s. After seeking advice from a colorist and a dermatologist, she learned that her condition was connected to stress overload.
Despite the challenges, Ashley Tisdale shared that she has learned how to properly manage her alopecia. She credits practices such as meditation, yoga, her art and “figuring out what is a big deal versus not a big deal” as being most helpful in coping with the autoimmune disorder. Additionally, Tisdale shared that her autoimmune-targeted diet, which emphasizes gut health and is similar to the paleo diet, has also been beneficial.

Ashley Tisdale encourages others who may be struggling with similar issues to not be ashamed to talk about it and to seek help. She also advises her followers to not make her autoimmune-targeted diet a lifestyle, but rather try it out as a 30-day thing. She also suggested considering platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment or a Hairmax Laserband to help stimulate hair growth.
Tisdale’s candidness about her struggles with alopecia serves as a reminder that hair loss can affect anyone and that it is important to seek help and find ways to manage the condition. Her message also highlights the importance of self-care and finding ways to manage stress as a means of improving overall health and well-being.
