Well-known Valorant Twitch streamer Kyedae, who announced her cancer diagnosis last month, shared a health update with her fans, mentioning that she was now bald.

In a tweet on her Twitter account, Kyedae updated her fans that her “BULD BUFF” was now activated. Although this might not seem like much of an update, it's still a big one. One of her fans even mentioned that they read it as “bald buff” instead. Kyedae would reply to this tweet, saying that she was, in fact, “actually bald”.

Hair loss is a common side effect of chemotherapy, which Kyedae will be undergoing soon. During a stream back in March, Kyedae mentioned that she was already contemplating shaving her hair off in anticipation of the hair loss. Kyedae asked her chat if it was better to shave her hair “before losing it so that I don't get sad” She said that “hair loss begins two to four weeks from now”, and was anticipating losing “40% of her hair”.

True enough, a month after mentioning it on stream, Kyedae went through with going bald.
