This case report documents acquired progressive kinking of the hair in a prepubertal boy but does not provide new clinical results.

Recent hair loss research shows some progress, especially in understanding male pattern baldness, but effective treatments for many types of hair loss are still lacking.

This study presents a case of a 6-month-old infant girl with hypotrichosis and an alopecic plaque in the occipital region, characterized by broken and dystrophic hairs with follicular papules and perifollicular hyperkeratosis, suggesting a diagnostic consideration.

This case series describes seven distinct hair shaft disorders, highlighting the importance of accurate diagnosis since these conditions are often treated incorrectly as alopecias without improvement.
