Ruth Langsford tells fans menopause 'left her needing secret hair extensions'

Ruth Langsford has taken to Instagram to make the shock revelation to her followers how the menopause left her needing secret hair extensions.

The TV presenter, 59, told her followers how the period in her life caused her blonde locks to thin.

And she also dropped the bombshell that she was forced her to add extensions to keep her locks looking thick and bouncy.

When she shared the post on her Instagram stories she described herself as Rapunzel, and wrote: “long hair don’t care”.

Later she uploaded a short video explaining she had long extensions in her hair which were cut short by her stylist and that she uses the tape hair extensions to add thickness to her hair.

Fans of the This Morning presenter warmed to Ruth after she shared the post and video and thanked her for her honesty.

One wrote: “Relate with you Ruth you look lovely.”

Another said: “Would never know … looks amazing thank you for sharing and mentioning the M-word.”
