The actress posed makeup-free in the bathroom photo while standing near a sink. She wore a black two-piece outfit and her hair was down as she held a box of hair dye up to the camera.

Bertinelli captioned the post, “At some point I will talk about the madness my body has been through this year. But right now every lump bump wrinkle and saggy part of me just feels acceptance and simple appreciation to be standing in front of a mirror in a hotel bathroom in downtown Manhattan ready to color my roots late on a Monday night.”

Fans reacted to her revealing picture with some calling the post unnecessary, “That’s great for you, but you don’t have to show everyone.” Other fans voiced their disapproval, “Have you lost your mind posting this photo. Get some therapy.”

A user who found the post excessively showy said, “She looks great but at some point in time you’ve got to stop being an attention seeker and just live your life.” Someone else bluntly asked, “Do you really think we want to see you in underwear and bra. No we do not. Grow up.”

Another disappointed user exclaimed, “Really don’t need to see this. Why??? Good grief.” A harsher critic begged, “Oh please. Have some dignity.” Meanwhile, one commenter dismissed the post entirely, “Who cares!!! Put your clothes on.”

One more user felt that Valerie Bertinelli was craving validation, writing, “Honestly you’re quite lovely and don’t need to post an underwear picture. If you’re posting for compliments you’ll get them here but why do you need them?”
