Jaiden showing off her face for the first time is indicative of her showing that she's no longer afraid of being open. However, instead of crossing the Despair Event Horizon, she turned back at the last second, opened herself up to the world, and through the support of everyone around her she had been neglecting to pay any attention to, she made a swift recovery and was able to move on from her lowest emotional rut. At that point in time, she didn't ever show herself to the world because her eating disorder had convinced her that she wasn't living up to nonexistent expectations, and following her spirit-breaking experience at VidCon 2016, she practically lost all reason for living.
