Nicole Eggert Embraces Her New Look After Completing a Round of Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer
Nicole Eggert, the beloved actress known for her role in “Baywatch,” has shared an inspiring update on her health journey following her recent breast cancer diagnosis. In a heartfelt video posted on Instagram, Eggert documented the moment she shaved her head with the help of her daughter Keegan.
As Beastie Boys’ song “Fight for Your Right” played in the background, Eggert and her daughter worked together to shave the last remnants of her hair. With a sense of acceptance and grace, Eggert caressed her newly-shorn head, smiling at her reflection in the mirror.
“Maybe healing involves not so much changing ourselves but allowing ourselves to be who we are,” Eggert captioned her video, expressing the profound transformation she was experiencing.
The post received an outpouring of support from fellow celebrities and friends. Alyssa Milano, who is also a breast cancer survivor, commented, “Grace. You have the most grace. It’s inspiring and I appreciate you.” Jennie Garth wrote, “Sending you a big hug,” while Jillian Barberie, another breast cancer survivor, encouraged Eggert: “isn’t it freeing?????? You’ve got this. I’m so proud of your honesty, integrity and strength. That’s half the performance.”
Eggert has been sharing updates on her cancer treatment, which includes chemotherapy. In a previous post from last month, she wrote, “Stay one step ahead of ur fears and u will never be defeated #fkcancer #shorthairdontcare.” In December 2023, she originally revealed her diagnosis with a poignant message that read: “I was diagnosed with breast cancer this month. I will be undergoing treatment and will keep you all updated on my progress.”
Throughout her journey, Eggert has displayed incredible resilience and strength in the face of adversity. Her candid sharing of her experiences not only offers hope to those going through similar challenges but also highlights the importance of open communication and self-acceptance during times of struggle.
