Amy Dowden shaves her head with support from family<\/h3>\n

Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden has bravely taken to Instagram to document the moment she shaved her hair as she continues to undergo treatment for cancer.<\/p>\n

The star told her 509,000 followers \u201cI took control\u201d and “this too shall pass” in the caption accompanying the emotional video.<\/p>\n

A tearful Amy can be seen taking selfies with friends and family who then take it in turns to help her with this poignant moment in her cancer journey by cutting off sections of her hair.<\/p>\n

In the caption, she wrote: \u201cThe hardest step so far. I tried my best to save it. I know it\u2019s only hair but these past few months I\u2019ve had what feels like so much taken away from me that has made me not feel like Amy.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m missing every possible aspect of dancing. I just wanted to keep my identity with my hair and I tried telling myself it wouldn\u2019t go. But I would dread the pain of waking up to the shredding every day.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve not been able to take control of this journey so far, but as you can see with some of my loved ones I took the courage and CONTROL.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s going to take some time to get used to and learn to love and embrace but, I\u2019m now focussing-not on the hair I\u2019m losing but the hair I\u2019m going to get back and the happy dancing, tea lover who talks way to fast whilst rolling every rrrrr who is still there inside with or without hair!\u201d (sic)<\/p>\n

She continued: \u201cSince taking control, I feel I can now see the finish line. This for me was a hurdle I couldn\u2019t even bring myself to think or speak about.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve done it and I\u2019ve also crossed the half way chemo line! Im feeling empowered and positive!\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

“To everyone on their own journey, whatever that may be, I\u2019m sending love, power, strength and courage.<\/p>\n

“I found my courage for this step and I\u2019m proud,\u201d she concluded before revealing that she “wanted to share the truth and hopefully help others, and bring normality to a beautiful bald head\u201d.<\/p>\n

Her celebrity fans, many of whom have taken part in the show, were quick to comment on her bravery with Michelle Visage writing: \u201cYOU ARE A WARRIOR AND THE BRAVEST OF THE BRAVE.\u201d (sic)<\/p>\n

Waterloo Road star Kym Marsh simply wrote: \u201cSending so much love xx.\u201d<\/p>\n

EastEnders star James Farrar said: \u201cWe are all with you Amy. BLESSINGS mate. Powerful.\u201d (sic)<\/p>\n

Anfd Former Coronation Street star Katie McGlynn echoed everyone\u2019s comments saying: \u201cSending you so much love, you\u2019ve got this!!\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Amy announced in May that she had been diagnosed with grade 3 breast cancer barely 10 months after she tied the knot with her husband Ben Jones. Due to her treatment, she is forced to sit this season of Strictly out and last week\u2019s launch show included a touching tribute to the stricken star.<\/p>\n

Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman called her their “Welsh dragon” and wished her a very speedy recovery in a lovely tribute ahead of one of the group dances. Tess said: “We are missing one of our Strictly dancers, the gorgeous Amy Dowden is unwell and she can’t be with us at the start of the series. She’s a Welsh Dragon and we know she will be back soon.”<\/p>\n

“Amy, from your entire Strictly family we’re sending you all our love and we can’t wait to have you back on the dancefloor,” Claudia remarked.<\/p>\n
