The star discussed this tragic aspect of her life while having a talk at a show. She stated that “I lost my hair through stress and I know what they are dealing with. “A woman’s hair is your femininity and to lose it is very stressful.

“These women are embracing their hair loss. It’s brilliant what they are doing and I’m happy to put my name to it.” Sherrie further shared that she had taken lots of medicines and vitamins after losing her hair. But luckily the hair growing back after six months.

Hannah McKay, 30, started losing her locks in July and found the courage to ask Sherrie to back their cause. She said: “We told her about our Women Warriors and she told us about losing her hair. We asked her if she would be an ambassador for us and she said yes.”
