Puberty often causes skin issues like acne and excessive sweating, and treatments require patience as results may vary.

Avoid chemical and physical damage to protect hair.

Some chemicals and drugs can cause hair loss, which usually grows back after stopping the treatment.

The most common cause of hair loss in children is tinea capitis, followed by alopecia areata and telogen effluvium.

Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.

Acidic sandy clay damages archaeological hair the most, while dry conditions preserve but make it brittle; silicone oil can help keep the hair flexible.

The document concludes that "hot comb alopecia" is now called "central cicatricial centrifugal alopecia" and its causes are complex.

CCCA is a common, progressive hair loss condition that may not always be linked to hair care practices and requires a biopsy for diagnosis.

Albert Kligman, known for his dermatology research and the discovery of tretinoin, was a significant figure in hair science but faced controversy for inmate experiments.

Albert M. Kligman, who turned 90 on March 17, 2006, made significant contributions to dermatology, including creating treatments for acne and studying skin aging.

Title change to "Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia (CCCA)"; common in African American women; hair-grooming methods may contribute; no effective therapy found; trials needed.

Some African American women experience central scalp hair loss, often linked to a history of fungal scalp infection.

Researchers developed a new way to measure gene activity in single hair follicles and found that a specific gene's activity changes with different amounts and times of treatment.

The VVG stain effectively differentiates scar tissue from normal skin and helps classify types of permanent alopecia.

Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for preventing permanent hair loss in various scalp conditions, and while new treatments are promising, more research is needed to evaluate their effectiveness.

More research is needed on CCCA in children, especially Black and Asian adolescents.

Type 2 diabetes, bacterial scalp infections, and tight hairstyles like braids and weaves are linked to a higher risk of a scarring hair loss condition in African American women.

Researchers found a white halo around hair in most patients with a specific type of hair loss, which helps in early diagnosis and treatment.

Hair transplants can effectively treat hair loss from CCCA in African American women if there's no inflammation.

The conclusion is that hair loss from CCCA may be genetic and not solely caused by hair grooming practices.

Certain mutations in the PADI3 gene may increase the risk of developing a type of scarring hair loss common in women of African descent.

Prediabetes may be a risk factor for hair loss.

The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat scarring hair loss conditions.

Diagnose and manage CCCA with thorough history, exams, and labs; treat with anti-inflammatory agents, stress reduction, and stopping harmful hair practices.

Horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are good for diagnosing Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia and help customize treatment.

Seborrheic dermatitis may contribute to the development of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires good teamwork between skin doctors and lab experts.

The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.

There are many treatments for permanent hair loss disorders, but their effectiveness varies and there's no clear best option.

Mutations in the PADI3 gene are linked to a higher risk of scarring hair loss in women of African descent.
