Courtney Stodden shaves head after miscarriage

It's been a rough couple of weeks for Courtney Stodden. The 21-year-old suffered a miscarriage and has since been very vocal about her grief on social media.

Late Sunday night, the model and TV personality took to Twitter, posting an emotional video where she talked about the ordeal and how she plans to move forward and give back.

"Hi everyone," she said through tears. "As you all know, I recently suffered a miscarriage and it's had a huge impact on me emotionally. I've been thinking and I have decided that I want to give back to my angel with a symbolic gesture, and that to me is shaving my hair off. I want to step into this chapter in my life fresh and with a new... so I wanted to share it with you because you're a huge support system to me and I love all of you so much."

A few hours later, Stodden debuted the newly-shaved look, wearing a leopard print bikini and matching headscarf.

"New chapter," she captioned the photo while holding up a glass of champagne.

She also posted a photo of herself lying on a leopard print rug, writing, "Free feline #shavedhead #photography #matthewpaul."

This new look comes after weeks of very public grieving on Stodden's Twitter page.

On July 21, she posted a picture of a champagne glass, writing, "Numbing myself of the deep loneliness I feel."

She's since shared several photos of herself drinking champagne.

"My heart is broken but I love you angel," she wrote on July 27.

And last week, Doug Hutchison's wife, wrote, "Having trouble eating. Seriously can't take a bite out of even a piece of bread without feeling like I'm gonna get sick #anxiety."
