Rebecca "Beckie" Jane Brown (born 4 December 1992 in Chelmsford, Essex, England) is an English vlogger, artist and YouTube personality. She has been active on YouTube since 2006 when she started videoblogging at the age of 13, under the name Beckie0. In 2008, Beckie started posting content about her disorder, Trichotillomania (a compulsive urge to pull out one's hair). Since then she has gone on to become a well known spokesperson for Trichotillomania, appearing on BBC, ITV, GMA and Channel 7 to discuss her condition and spread awareness. In 2011, Beckie Jane Brown was nominated for Mind's Digital Media Award for her online work, and won The Speaking Out Award.
She has taken a photo of herself every day since the age of 14, which she says has come to record the progress of her hair loss alongside other events of her life.
