a number of bald patches on her scalp

Jordan aka Katie Price is paying the price of unhealthy living and years of using hair extensions and bleaching her hair. Media news reports say that she has developed a number of bald patches on her scalp and that she is extremely upset by it. Jordan apparently started to develop her hair loss after a problem following hair treatment in America and has since spent a lot of money to try and fix it.

Jordan's problem is that over the last ten years she has done something drastic to her hair practically every month and this has finally taken its toll. Added to this she hardly lives a healthy lifestyle and is constantly partying like there's no tomorrow.

Most people associate baldness with men and are unaware that many women suffer from it too because they fail to look after themselves and their hair properly. It's one thing to 'let your head down' in your twenties but when you get to your thirties you need to start to take good care of your body and hair if you want to look good in your forties.

For someone like Jordan losing her hair is extremely distressing because not only is she seen in the public eye all the time but she is someone who is always identified by her sexy and glamorous appearance. Losing her hair will not just make her look weird but will rob her completely of her whole identity. News reports claim that she has told her friends that her hair "is her life" and that without it she is "disgusting".

When men begin to get male pattern baldness it is almost certainly a result of the natural genetic process which can only be stopped with the use of certain medications like Propecia. In the case of women getting hair loss it is usually stress or hormone related and requires lifestyle changes in order for it to go way.
