Nadia Sawalha recently showcased her stunning wolf cut hairstyle during an episode of Loose Women. The 61-year-old television personality is typically known for her curly locks but decided to embrace this trendy, modern style with encouragement from her husband, Mark Adderley, and their daughters.
Nadia’s Embrace of the Wolf Cut
During the lively panel discussion on January 29, Nadia debuted her new look alongside fellow presenters Charlene White, Oti Mabuse, and Jane Moore. The wolf cut, a unisex hairstyle that mixes elements of the 70s shag and 80s mullet, features dramatic volume at the crown and longer, feathered ends.
Nadia expressed her excitement about transforming what she referred to as her “old lady” hair. She shared that her friend Simone helped her achieve this “ultra trendy” haircut. This change comes after her candid acknowledgments about her hair loss journey, which has been influenced by factors such as perimenopause and genetics.
Challenges and Changes
Nadia has been open about the impact of motherhood on her hair, noting that it has often required extensions or wigs to achieve her signature style. The former EastEnders star has also faced personal challenges recently. She is mourning the loss of her family nanny, Pat, who was a crucial figure in her daughters’ lives.
- Pat: Became a “second mum” to Nadia’s daughters, Maddie, 23, and Kiki, 18.
- Nadia’s Tribute: Shared heartfelt memories on social media, stating, “I love how much they loved you.”
In addition to this loss, Nadia recently grieved the passing of her dear friend Hannah Gardner, who lost her battle with breast cancer at the age of 39. Nadia struggled to hold back her emotions as she honored her friend’s memory on the show.
Activism and Advocacy
Throughout her friendship with Hannah, Nadia participated in advocacy work for breast cancer awareness, specifically lobbying for the NHS to provide access to the life-saving medication Enhertu for women suffering from secondary breast cancer. This initiative further highlighted Nadia’s dedication to the cause.
Loose Women continues to air on weekdays at 12:30 PM on ITV1 and ITVX, allowing viewers to connect with Nadia and her heartfelt stories.
