    autoimmune disease causing inflammation and damage to hair follicles

    Lupus hair loss, also known as lupus-related hair loss or lupus alopecia, refers to the hair thinning or shedding that occurs as a result of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease. This condition can cause inflammation and damage to hair follicles, leading to temporary or permanent hair loss, often characterized by brittle hair that breaks easily.
