Are you suffering from hair loss or thinning hair along your hairline, near the temples or elsewhere on your scalp?
If you have worn tightly
braided hairstyles, ponytails or any other hairstyle that has caused your hair
to pull tightly away from your scalp, you may be suffering from a condition
called traction alopecia.
Medicinenet.com defines traction alopecia as a small or localized hair loss area caused by repetitive pulling or force on the hair roots. According to the medical website, tight braids and ponytails can pull hard enough on hairs to make them fall out.
