    TLDR The claimant sued for negligence after a hair treatment caused harm and distress, and the defendant responded after legal action started.
    In the 2007 document, a claimant sued a defendant for professional negligence during a hair treatment that resulted in a visible donor skin graft site and moderate psychological distress. The lawsuit was based on the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 and common law negligence, as the defendant failed to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the bleaching product Oxycur Platin. The defendant initially ignored the claim but responded after legal proceedings began and expert evidence was presented. The defense claimed that an 'Olymp Hair Master' was used instead of a regular hair dryer and that the claimant was advised to use a 'super charged' conditioner, not Sudacrem.

      The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
