And now, the telly favourite has got candid on how she hides patches without needing to break the bank.
Posting on social media, Abbie, who shot to fame in 2017 on Geordie Shore, filmed herself with a half up, half down hairstyle and said: “Girls, if you like to wear your hair like this but suffer from bald patches like me, I’m gonna put you on a product that will change your life.
“So I did a live the other day getting ready and I used what I call ‘bald spray’ and so many people were asking me about it.
“I actually just thought it was common knowledge and everyone knew about this product, but I was quite surprised a lot of you didn’t, so I thought, I’ll do a little TikTok about it.”
After showing off her outfit, the brunette beauty held up her haircare secret – the Superdrug Colour Fix Instant Root Cover, which is just £5 a bottle.
She added: “I thought I’ll just film showing you what I do to get rid of the bald patches that I have.”
Showing off her bargain high street find, which is described as a “temporary colour spray” and can be used to cover roots and greys, Abbie added: “This is a lifesaver from Superdrug. Girls, boys can use it.”
Abbie then recognised that while a lot of brands have their own versions of this spray, they can often be “quite expensive.”
But luckily for those on a budget, Superdrug’s affordable find is super purse-friendly at just £5 a bottle.
The reality TV star continued: “I am literally gonna take away all of my bald patches. I’m gonna cover my face just to be safe.”
After concealing her bald patches, Abbie beamed: “How insane.
“Just be careful it doesn’t get on your make-up, that’s all. It can get a little bit messy.”

She then told beauty fans to “wash your hands after” and reassured people that it “comes off straight away” with no scrubbing needed.
Thrilled with her hair thanks to the spray, she gushed: “So much better. Absolute godsend.

Hair Loss 101
HAIR pro Samantha Cusick has revealed everything you need to know about hair loss.
Why Does Hair Loss Happen?
Hair loss can be influenced by so many factors, from genetics and hormone changes to lifestyle choices.
Stress, diet, and even hair care habits can all impact hair strength.
It’s perfectly normal to lose some hair each day, but sometimes the body can shed more than usual, responding to things like hormonal shifts or even life stressors.
Why It Happens More This Time of Year
Have you ever noticed your hair seems to shed more in autumn? That’s seasonal shedding!
During summer, we hold onto extra hair to protect our scalp from the sun.
As the weather cools, it’s like our body recalibrates and lets go of those extra strands.
Dry, cooler air can also make hair more brittle, making it easier to lose a little extra volume during these months.
Hacks and Affordable Buys to Treat Hair loss
The great news? You don’t need to spend a fortune on pricey treatments to support your hair.
Try daily scalp massages—they’re so simple but really help boost blood flow to the follicles.
Castor oil is another fantastic, budget-friendly option that’s rich in nutrients to strengthen your strands.
Adding a bit more protein to your diet and a biotin supplement can also work wonders for overall hair health.
Products to Avoid
Steer clear of products with high levels of alcohol, sulphates, and parabens – they can be drying and damage hair over time.
Heat styling and chemical treatments can also cause breakage, so try to use them sparingly.
Instead, look for gentle, hydrating formulas to support your scalp and keep hair healthier through the seasons.
Beauty fans beam
And it’s just not Abbie who loves the Superdrug Colour Fix Instant Root Cover, as the bargain buy has quickly racked up numerous five star reviews online.
One person described it as “the perfect product” and said: “I bought these as I had grey roots and did not need to dye my whole hair.

“It sprays easily and does the job with a natural finish. It washes off easily.”

“Would highly recommend and will definitely be using more frequently in the future in between dying my hair! Smells great as well!”
Meanwhile, a third commented: “It’s very easy to use and delivers an amazing look within 10 seconds on my thinning hair.”
