Shannen Doherty's mom and friend shared the story of shaving the late actress' head amid her cancer diagnosis
Shannen Doherty's mom, Rosa Doherty, and longtime friend Anne Marie Kortright are reflecting on the moment they realized just how 'brave' the late actress was amid her cancer battle.
'I called you because she called me,' Rosa said to Kortright. 'I was there with her, and she's like, 'OK, mom, I want you to cut my hair.' I'm like, 'What?' Because at the time she was losing some hair, but she still had a full head of hair. And she said, 'No, come with me,' and she took me into the bathroom and she put her hair in a ponytail and she said, 'Cut this ponytail off now.' And I did cut the ponytail.
'For those of you who are going through this, you will know that it is not as easy as it looks. You actually need some training,' Kortright explained. 'So I got some training real quickly. But you know what, in all seriousness, it was a big moment. I didn't realize it until later on how brave she was. Like, how truly brave she was to just bear it all and share it with you guys, and you know the outpouring of love after that post.
Shannen, who openly documented her cancer diagnosis and shared her day-to-day life with followers, died in July after a lengthy battle with cancer. She was 53.
