AS the old saying goes "pain is beauty and beauty is pain."
And one woman, who posts under the handle @exteriorglam, proved this to be true after revealing how a tight, braided hairstyle left her with a massive bald patch.
The beauty fan took to TikTok and posted a video where she begins by showing a snap of her tightly braided hair, which falls to below her bottom.
Next, she shares a photo from the following morning when she was horrified to discover a massive bald spot.
"Wtf happened?" she asks.
She captioned the post: "I’m shook #braidedponytail #hairloss #baldspot."
