THE SECRET TO OVERCOMING HAIR LOSS
LUSTA HAIR
ACTIVITY 2
Social Media
Reset
This activity is something that really helped me relinquish the power that these
societal expectations had over me. We are going to do a social media reset.
What does this mean? We are going to go through our social media accounts, our
Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts, and unfollow any accounts that:
a) Reinforce any femininity stereotypes we don’t want to subscribe to anymore
b) Hurt your self-confidence
c) Don’t do anything to lift you up
Sometimes you need to have a think about this and be honest with yourself. Is that
beauty blogger who has the best hair and is constantly talking about how she
would hate to lose her hair actually inspiring to you? Yes, you may have followed her
for years, but when you see her content, does it make you feel good about yourself?
Does it make you feel happy? If not, it’s probably time to say goodbye.
But let’s not stop at just removing accounts we follow. Let’s add some new accounts!
We want to start looking for accounts that LIFT US UP. Accounts that support other
women, that encourage self-love and make us feel like we can take on the world.
There’s so many out there, try searching through the instagram ‘self love’ or ‘girl
power’ hashtags if you’re stuck!
And an absolute game changer for me was following women who embraced their
hair loss and showed their thin hair or no hair with pride. Flooding my feed with
these women subconsciously changed how I saw myself in the mirror and before I
knew it I was catching my reflection and liking how I looked more and more. It
allowed me to see that no hair is actually STUNNING and let go of the belief that a
women needs hair to be beautiful and accepted.
