Do you have traction alopecia/hair loss from hairstyle?

If you're suffering from traction alopecia - hair loss from prolonged/repetitive tension on head hair - please fill in our survey here https://t.co/2MQLU1jz7N

Traction alopecia can be caused by regularly wearing tight hairstyles including cornrows, dreadlocks, weaves, and braids.

It can also be caused by using hair extensions or chemical relaxers/rollers.

Please feel free to share the link with others who suffer https://t.co/2MQLU1jz7N

Thanks,
