Mpho Wa Badimo shaves off her hair
South African socialite Mpho Wa Badimo opens up about grieving her mother’s death.
The ex-BBMzansi winner shared photos of her shaved head revealing that she decided to go bald to honour her late mom.
Taking to social media, she penned down how grief transitioned her to a new phase.
“There is something about grief that changes you forever not only do you grieve the loss of your loved one but you also grieve who you were before your loss. It hasn’t been the easiest of transitions but I’ve slowly learnt to live with the pain and welcome grief as part of my journey.”
“My grief slowly went from a dark space to me finding my light and power once again welcoming new energies of healing ,grace & letting go because I have learnt that grief is just LOVE with no place to go and the best thing to do is to go through it.”
“Our Hair is our crown & removing our hair is not a sign of weakness but a sign of respect, honour and recollecting our strength. In honour of my Mom I shaved off my hair as a sign of respect and allowing myself to heal and letting go because our hair carries energies and memories and sometimes trauma and pain that we have experienced in our lives so cutting it off helps in the releasing of that energy and allowing healing in both spirit and the physical.”
“I cried tears that could fill an ocean, weeping the loss of my Mother but guess what? Rain Makes The Flowers Grow and in life you either choose to stay down & wallow in your pain and die or choose to take back your power & rise like a phoenix that you are!”
