This study found that individuals with seborrheic alopecia had significant disruptions in their scalp microbiome, marked by imbalances in certain bacteria and fungi, and that a 12-week herbal shampoo intervention helped restore microbial diversity and improve clinical symptoms.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia showed distinct scalp bacterial imbalances compared to healthy individuals, which were associated with unhealthy lifestyles. These microbial changes might contribute to follicular inflammation, potentially accelerating hair loss in these patients.

This systematic review reported that probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, postbiotics, and dietary supplements may improve hair density and reduce dandruff severity in individuals with scalp disorders, potentially by modifying inflammation, oxidative stress, and microbiota composition; however, variability across studies limits the strength of these conclusions.

This study suggests that both the sebum composition and microbial imbalance on the scalp may play a role in the development of androgenetic alopecia among Japanese males.

Changes in scalp bacteria are linked to female hair loss, suggesting new treatment options.
