For her taking her wig out was a liberal experience both personally and professionally. She had her friend by her side when she decided to do it. Her friend was also going bald, but they decided to go out in a town where no one knew them.

 

Her friend showed her a blogger who looked great with a bald head.  Eventually, Therese reached out to this woman and they’re now friends. But Amber Rose also inspired her, the one who shaves her head and looks amazing.
