Has Kristen Stewart’s Post-breakup Stress Caused Hair Loss?

by Alexandra Kilpatrick

It appears that Kristen Stewart’s split from Robert Pattinson has taken a toll on the actress, who has been sighted with a large bald patch on her head.

Usually spotted concealing her brunette locks beneath hats and caps, Stewart was pictured in Berlin last month with dramatic hair loss on the right side of her scalp, likely due to stress following her breakup with Pattinson.

Worried Friends

Kristen’s friends are becoming increasingly concerned about her fragile state of mind, especially in the face of her severe hair loss.

“Kristen’s circle are so concerned about her that two of her friends have flown to Germany to see her,” a source told Now magazine. “They want to take her to a distressing yoga retreat on the outskirts of Berlin. They’ve also begged Rob to visit her on set. They fear the stress is getting worse because she’s been trying to make contact with him and he’s ignoring all of her calls.”

Desperately Seeking Edward?

According to the Daily Mail, recent reports say that Stewart has been trying to arrange a reunion with Pattinson. She and her former Twilight co-star split earlier this year after their relationship failed to move past her affair with married director Rupert Sanders.

Stewart is currently shooting Sils Maria in Berlin alongside co-star Juliette Binoche. According to reports, the 23-year-old actress has been using hair extensions in an effort to conceal her hair loss while shooting the new movie.

Is Kristen's Hair Entering Its 'Twilight'?

Hair expert Gary Heron of Westminster’s Hair Centre comments that Stewart has likely developed telogen effluvium, a premature interruption of hair growth.

“Her hair is very thin and the loss looks extensive,” Heron told the Daily Mail. “Kristen is far too young for this not to have been caused by stress. To remedy the situation, Kristen needs to change her lifestyle. She should start eating a balanced diet, which will assist regrowth, and take better care of her hair.”

The Hollywood Gossip speculated various causes of the actress’ recent hair loss, including a vitamin or nutrient deficiency, overuse of heat hairstyling tools, post-breakup stress and emotional anxiety or simply a bad set of photos or bad hair day.

The location of Stewart’s part on the right side is not helping with the visibility of her hair loss, according to The Hollywood Gossip. She should move her part to down the middle or slightly over to one side in order to effectively hide the bald spot.

“The stress of not having Rob in her life has some believing that her hair is thinning and falling out,” HollywoodLife commented on Stewart’s bald spot. “Her part appeared to show her hair thinning in photos taken in August.”
