Women Shaving Heads in Trump Protest Spark Backlash From Alopecia Patients

Some social media users have started to fight back after women are shaving their heads to protest President-elect Donald Trump's second administration.

What started as a trend on TikTok for women to shave their heads in protest of the election results has become somewhat a more sensitive topic for others with alopecia and those who had to shave their heads for diseases like cancer, conditions where baldness is not always a choice.

"To the women shaving their head for the 4B Movement, you say you're saving your head so 'men won't want you' but does that mean that men shouldn't want women that have struggled with hair loss due to alopecia or chemo?" a TikTok user @xlaurnalexis posted with a slide show of photos of her. "You're (sic) actions are very selfish and it's only effecting (sic) the women that have struggled with hair loss. Should we not be able to feel loved by a man?"

Newsweek reached out to Lauryn as well as other TikTok users on the issue.

@alyssakp1 shared a "PSA" that she is bald but not for political reasons.

"I bald because my body hates me, not because I hate men," @alyssakp1 posted. "Justice for the alopecia baddies and the hair loss community."

The trend of women shaving their heads seems to have started with Maria Barbieri, who posted under the handle @girl_dumphim. Barbieri said she woke up "feeling spicy" and used both a razor and clippers to say "**** being all the things that the patriarchy wants us to be because, clearly, they don't give a **** about us."

I have two screeching female libtard neighbors who have bonded over TDS. I’m thinking about how to encourage them to shave their heads.

Leave it to the libs to find a protest vehicle that’s guaranteed to pi$$ of at least one segment of society!

Maybe they should try constructive dialog for a change.

+1, I encourage this line of thought. Make it easy for others to quickly know they’re dealing with advanced #TDS.

Shave it off, shave it all off.

Those alopecia folks are probably pissed that they will be ID’d as leftist scum along with that pink pussy hat crowd.

I became a member of the hair loss community at about age 22, due to genetics. Happy to see backlash against nutty Democrat wimminz!

Why should women think the Feminists should care about them when they cannot grow hair, when the SAME FEMINISTS are going court to make sure that men can SLAM Volleyballs in their faces, and SLAM their bodies to the ground when wrestling.

A Women’s long hair is her Glory. History shows that when conquered, the Victor would shave the conquered Women’s heads to shame them and their men. I have unlimited sympathy for women that lose their hair naturally, everyone does, but to intentionally shave their heads is against God and His Glory. Any woman that would shave their head is in rebellion against God, and rebellion against God is witchcraft.
