“There’s nothing quite like the feeling of seeing fistfuls of your own hair – which I’ve long associated with my identity – in your hands,” writes morningmika for KnowYourValue.

When my mom passed away later that month, even more of my hair started falling out. I did the best I could with it on air , pulling it back and hoping it wouldn’t be too noticeable.

My hair was still falling out in December. Before the White House State Dinner with President Joe Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron, I was nervous because I had visible bald spots on my head, and parts of my hair were only one-inch in length. Joe was concerned. But I’m proud to say, the 55-year-old me remained calm. This just wasn’t a big deal compared to what I’ve been through, like dealing with my mom’s passing. I told myself that I don’t need hair to feel beautiful. In my 50s, I’ve learned that posture, confidence, and a great smile can compensate for a lot. And that was my M.O. for the night.I wore a beautiful, black Caroline Herrera dress.

And I did feel great. Later in the night, I looked in the mirror inside a White House bathroom and I liked what I saw. Throughout my career, I’ve always had a lot of great hair and some type of side bang covering my forehead. That night, I went with my face and head completely exposed, and I actually liked it. You could see all of me.
