Types of Hair Loss Explained

Marquita Daniel 0 comments

There are several types of hair loss, each with unique causes and treatments:

  • Androgenetic Alopecia: Also known as male or female pattern baldness, this genetic condition is the most common form of hair loss.

  • Telogen Effluvium: Often triggered by stress, illness, or hormonal changes, this type causes temporary shedding.

  • Alopecia Areata: An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks hair follicles.

  • Traction Alopecia: Caused by tight hairstyles or repeated tension on the hair.

  • Cicatricial (Scarring) Alopecia: A rare form where inflammation damages hair follicles permanently.

Understanding which type you’re experiencing can guide your choice in treatments like our Grow & Restore System, which addresses both scalp health and follicle stimulation.
