When a sudden and unexpected change occurs in your life, your entire existence is turned upside down.
Everything you once took for granted suddenly becomes something you value the most.
When mother Jennifer suddenly became ill, her health changed drastically.
She began feeling worse and the more severe the situation became, the more she started withdrawing from the world.
Jennifer, who used to be the center of attention at various events, finally wanted more than anything to just be invisible after several changes in her appearance.
But when she got the chance to undergo a transformation, she finally brought her true inner self back to life.
And after the hairdresser worked their magic, it’s hard to believe it’s the same woman sitting in front of the camera.
Life is an amazing journey.
You may think it will go a certain way, but when unexpected things happen, you’re tested and suddenly new paths may appear before you.
Many of us take our health for granted, even though we know it doesn’t take much to lose it.

But for mother Jennifer, a health report meant a change in so many more ways than she could have imagined.
Her career was at its peak, she was raising her sons and enjoying life with her husband.
But then she unexpectedly received a diagnosis that would change everything.
Jennifer was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, which means she has an excess of hormones.
“This causes the body cells and organs to work harder and you may, for example, sweat, become tired, have palpitations, and lose weight,” writes 1177 on their website.
The diagnosis also left its mark in terms of Jennifer’s appearance.
She was also told she had a thyroid eye disease, something that a quarter of all Graves’ disease patients get.
Didn’t Recognize Herself Anymore
As the disease settled in her eyes, Jennifer began to have more and more bulging eyes, a common occurrence in patients with the diagnosis.
Eventually, Jennifer didn’t recognize herself anymore when she looked in the mirror and began withdrawing from public life more and more.
Someone who used to enjoy being in the spotlight and spending time with loved ones started retreating.
It got to the point where Jennifer begged to be invisible so people wouldn’t stare at her face.
It was also at this point that she reached out to Christopher Hopkins, also known as Mr. Makeover Guy.
For years, he has been helping women who want to undergo a transformation in one way or another.
And Jennifer was desperate for something like that.
In a video, she talks about how she started dressing more boring and stopped caring fully about her appearance.
After the diagnosis, Jennifer says she started not recognizing herself.
The everyday and boring woman staring back at her in the mirror was completely unfamiliar.
She wanted to go back to the vibrant and colorful woman she used to be and she needed help.
So the stylist got their hands on her hair and gave her a makeover that would give Jennifer the boost she so needed.
Years seem to fly off her as she flaunts the results at the end of the video.
With a short hairstyle, she looks so much younger and fresher.
It’s a beautifully made-up Jennifer looking radiant back at the camera and there’s no doubt that a transformation has taken place both inside and out.
Wow, now your outside matches your inside! Very beautiful!
