Topic: Have you heard of Traction Alopecia?
Hello Friends
Have you heard
of Traction Alopecia? We are familiar with medical reasons that can cause hair
loss. Disease, genetics, and certain medications have been proven to cause hair
loss. What you may be unfamiliar with is how certain hairstyles can cause
dramatic hair loss over time. We know the hairstyles that our family members
would use on our hair. Ponytails, hair buns, dreads, twists, and corn rows are
popular hairstyles in our culture. Weave styles are also very popular.
Unfortunately, these styles have been proven to cause hair loss.
The reason why
these hairstyles cause damage is because of the constant stress these
hairstyles place on the root. The tension or tight pulling of the hair causes
damage at the root or hair shaft which causes the hair to appear thin or baby
fine. Failure to recognize or change these hairstyle habits/styles in time can
cause dramatic hair loss. So by definition Traction Alopecia is hair loss that
is caused by constant pulling on the hair.
Headgear can
also cause traction alopecia. Be careful when wearing hair gear that is tight around the
hairline. In simple terms you can pull hair when removing tight head gear.
If you are
suffering with hair loss due to these styles, the good news is that you can
