<p id=”par-3_56″>“I’m hesitant to share this cause it’s a vulnerable and sensitive thing for me,” Moriah captioned her July 7 <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/DL0J9NHO0_J/?hl=en&img_index=2″>Instagram</a> post. “Many people have been criticizing the way I look, it’s nothing new to me and I’ve grown used to being picked apart since I was young for my style choices, hair choices and makeup choices.”</p>
<p id=”par-4_29″>Moriah, 22, said some of that past criticism was “reasonable” based on some of her “crazy” style choices. But the latest round of blunt comments has been more painful. </p>
<p id=”par-5_91″>“Some of you may know I’ve struggled with alopecia just about my whole life but since it grew back when I was about 8 years old, for the most part it’s been manageable,” she wrote. “But a few months ago I lost all my hair, eyebrows and eyelashes again. It was extremely hard and emotional and I had to come to terms with it. I cried an awful lot and then told myself oh well, it is what it is. I’ll do what I can and make the most of it.” </p>

<p id=”par-6_18″>Moriah wasn’t prepared for her sudden <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/ricki-lake-revealed-why-sharing-her-hair-loss-journey-was-so-important-i-needed-to-be-set-free-from-this-silent-suffering.html/”>hair loss</a>, and she says she’s still figure out her new look. </p>
<p id=”par-7_47″>“I’m not very talented yet at wearing wigs and trying to draw my dang eyebrows on every day can be frustrating lol,” she wrote. “I’m still trying to master that haha! So if I look a bit odd or different now that would most likely be why.” </p>
<p id=”par-8_11″>She’s also trying to accept the latest changes in her appearance. </p>
<p id=”par-9_68″>“I’m learning to love myself the way God made me, with or without hair… it’s a continuous struggle but I’m getting there! If you choose to get work done, no judgement,” she wrote. “But do know that you are beautiful the way that God created you, unique! And honestly I tend to think that our imperfections and insecurities are actually some parts of us that are most beautiful!”</p>
<p id=”par-10_22″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/welcome-to-plathville-moriah-plath-kids-parents.html/”>The TLC star</a> concluded by asking people to stop and think before they made a cruel or thoughtless remark about someone’s appearance. </p>
<p id=”par-11_36″>“Before you criticize someone or comment on their appearance just remember, you never know what they’re going through,” she wrote. “Try to speak life and positivity cause they probably are harder on themselves then you are!”</p>
