This case report highlights trichotillomania's distinguishing "tonsure pattern" and nail-biting, emphasizing the need to differentiate it from other hair loss types due to differing treatments.

This study found that 3 percent topical minoxidil solution was ineffective in treating severe chronic alopecia areata, as it did not produce cosmetically acceptable hair regrowth.

This study reports that despite normal cystine incorporation into hair follicles, trichothiodystrophy patients have decreased cystine levels in hair shafts, contradicting the hypothesis of defective transport in hair follicles.

This report notes that five women experiencing hypertrichosis as a side effect of minoxidil had successful hair removal using a calcium thioglycolate depilatory agent.
