BRITNEY Spears opened up about why she shaved her head during her 2007 meltdown with a tattooist moments after the act.
The singer, 42, sheared off her locks with a pair of clippers at a hair salon, after her ex, Kevin Federline, reportedly wouldn’t let her see their two kids, Sean and Jayden.

The 2019 documentary, Britney Spears – Breaking Point, reveals the reason Britney shaved her head, which was kept secret for 12 years.
After chopping off her locks, Britney turned up at Body and Soul Tattoo studio where she confided in tattooist Emily Wynee-Hughes.
Emily said in the documentary: “I noticed her hair was gone. I remember asking her, ‘why did you shave your head?’ And her answer was a bit weird.
“It was, you know, ‘I just don’t want anybody, anybody touching my head. I don’t want anyone touching my hair. I’m sick of people touching my hair.'”
Britney asked for a tattoo of another woman’s lips to begin with, then a small cross.
Emily claims no one on her team tried to help or intervene, adding: “It just didn’t seem like they cared very much. I’ve felt this insane sense of anxiety and energy that felt so negative.
“It just seemed like everybody was waiting for the crash to happen.”
The hair shaving incident happened after she fled from rehab in Antigua.

She turned up at her ex Kevin’s house and demanded to see their sons, but he allegedly refused.
This led to Britney driving to anΒ Los AngelesΒ hair salon and asking to have her head shaved. When the hairdresser tried to talk her out of it, Britney grabbed the clippers and did it herself.
Afterwards, the singer was placed under conservatorship, which meant her dad Jamie had control over her financial and personal assets.
