In 2022, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley revealed that she had been living with alopecia areata. In a video announcement, Congresswoman Pressley ditched the twists that had become a part of her brand to reveal that the last bit of hair she had on her head had fallen out.
She says she shared this information because she wanted to feel "free from the shame" that came with keeping her battle with alopecia a secret, and said that she was still making peace with it. Since then, Congresswoman Pressley has become an advocate for alopecia awareness and continues to embrace her new look.
