Telogen effluvium is a condition that causes temporary hair loss.

This study observed that hair cuticles experience greater water-induced plasticization than hair cortex, affecting the torsional rigidity of hair fibers, which may help predict hair setting behavior.

This review highlights advances in understanding trichotillomania's neurobiology and treatment, noting behavior therapy's effectiveness and new pharmacological and digital therapies, while addressing underdiagnosis, stigma, and research gaps.

Pulling 2 or fewer hairs is normal for all hair types, including Afro- and Asian-textured hair.

Most hair loss in kids and teens is due to common conditions, and hair usually grows back within 6 months.

This review discusses loose anagen hair syndrome in children, characterized by non-scarring alopecia and increased hair shedding, and reports no new results; topical minoxidil may be used as a treatment.

This study found that female rhesus macaques who gained hair showed a significant reduction in hair cortisol concentrations, suggesting a connection between hair regrowth and stress levels.

Scurvy, caused by vitamin C deficiency, can occur in people with restrictive diets and can be diagnosed by twisted hair shafts.
