Vanessa Hudgens is sharing insight into her postpartum hair loss after welcoming her second baby with husband Cole Tucker in November 2025.
The High School Musical star, 37, took to her Instagram Stories on Monday, March 30, to share a picture of herself holding a couple of strands of hair. “And so it begins,” she wrote over the pic.
Hudgens then shared a makeup-free selfie showing off her long dark locks. “Having an excellent day even with my hair loss lol,” she wrote over the image, by which she may be seen sporting a blank tank top and red nails.
Based on the Mayo Clinic, postpartum hair loss is a typical condition for brand new mothers a couple of months after giving birth. “It’s attributable to hormone changes that occur during and after pregnancy,” in keeping with the tutorial medical center, and for most ladies, “hair will grow back to its original fullness.”
Hudgens and Tucker, 29, welcomed their second child together late last yr. She gave birth to the couple’s first baby in mid-2024, just several months after they tied the knot in Tulum, Mexico, in December 2023.
Hudgens and her husband haven’t publicly revealed the names or sex of their little ones.
“Well…. I did it. Had one other baby!!! What a wild ride labor is,” the actress and singer shared in a November 2025 Instagram post announcing she had given birth. “Big shout out to all of the mothers. It’s truly incredible what our bodies can do ❤️.”
In a followup Instagram Story, Hudgens revealed that she had popped a blood vessel while giving birth.
Hudgens met MLB shortstop Tucker in fall 2020 during a meditation session over Zoom. They wed in an intimate ceremony three years later.
“I also knew I desired to get married somewhere warm, and our window for getting married was so small because Cole’s [baseball] season could be very long,” she recalled to Vogue in 2023. “I felt like, ‘Mexico it’s!’ I also wanted somewhere very spiritual. So I went to the hotel and got a extremely long tour, where I personally was not doing well, I used to be so hot and felt like I used to be going to faint. At the tip of this very long tour, I used to be like, ‘Where would we now have our ceremony?’ they usually were like, ‘Oh, that may be at our museum,’ they usually said, ‘It’s 45 minutes into the jungle.’ I used to be considering, ‘Okay, that sounds aggressive, but I assume I’ll give it a try.’”
She added, “I felt like I used to be transported to some form of utopia, unlike anything I had ever been to before. It was whimsical and magical, and I just fell in love.”
