The 2023 NASCAR season has been a crazy graph of highs and lows for the Busch family. Roaring to a fresh start with his new team, Richard Childress Racing, Kyle Busch had pumped hopes into his run for the championship at the onset of the year. Brexton Busch, his little son, has also been making quite the impact on the tracks that he races. However, in the latest downturn of events, the 109-laps at the Roval rendered Kyle Busch effectively eliminated from the championship contest. Adding on to the weight of that is a persisting issue that Samantha Busch has been facing for months now.

Making use of her Instagram handle, Samantha shared news of her hair fall condition that keeps troubling her for causes unknown. Despite her best efforts at leading a healthy life and dealing with her hair issues, Samantha hasn’t quite found success in it. Her story was a clear reflection of her frustration.

The tale of Samantha’s battle with hair loss began a while back. Opening up to the world about the seriousness of the problem, she had announced that her locks were shedding abnormally. Initially, blood tests had not revealed medical diseases and the cluelessness of professionals had added to her concerns. Later she found out that she has alopecia areata, a condition that occurs when the immune system attacks hair follicles. With the suggestions and advice of her fan following, Samantha had tried out multiple hair products and consulted one too many medical specialists, but it appears that she has not yet figured out a solution for her problems.

Sharing an image on her Instagram story of a bunch of her hair fallen into a washbasin, she wrote, “I just want to take my ponytail out without clumps of hair coming out in my hands”

Prior to this display of frustration, Samantha had taken to Instagram on various occasions to provide updates on her health. Back in January, when she first came out with the issue, she’d written in a post, “For someone who already had thin hair every time I take a ponytail out or even lightly brush it, watching it all come out makes me want to cry. I’m super self-conscious.” 

Sadly, the continuity of her struggles is only further amplified by the stress that she faces in her daily life with motorsport athletes.

Kyle Busch’s maiden season with the racing team of Richard Childress wasn’t one of the worst ones of his career by any means. Nevertheless, his dominant displays just weren’t enough to get him into the final 8. Keeping the on-track disappointments aside, 2023 has been a very testing time for the Buschs. The sale of Kyle Busch Motorsports, the listing of their Charlotte Mansion and the frenzy surrounding Kyle’s potential retirement all add to the pressure that Samantha faces. One more concern that she has voiced was about her son’s racing career.

8-year-old Brexton has been racing almost every weekend and the dangers of motorsports are only too well known by Samantha. Talking about how it wrecked her nerves to watch her son drive, she said, “It is very nerve-wracking as the mother. I always thought being like a driver’s wife was nerve-wracking. But every single race he’s in feels like a Daytona or a Talladega.”
