In her video, Vaughn detailed going to the doctor to get her blood drawn and getting a “full blood panel,” so she can “see what’s going on with my health.” Vaughn shared that her hair had begun to fall out “at an alarming rate,” and though she “got some answers,” she wanted to make sure “there’s not anymore, deeper health things going on because it is scary.”
“I feel like when your hair is coming out, it’s just such an obvious sign that something’s going on,” she added. Vaughn then shared that she had been “stressed” after her recent breakup and move, but noticed that her hair was falling out more than usual. “I’m hoping that everything’s fine when I get the blood results back.”
