PUBLIC MARKS from kzoo with tags Alopecia & traction

Traction alopecia, also known as traumatic, “nurse’s cap”, or “hot comb” alopecia, is a hair loss condition that is usually caused by strong tensional forces that are exerted on hair as a result of some ethnic, traditional, and modern practices of hair styling, often connected with the use of hair rollers, twists, locks, braids, etc. Women, especially those of the Indian and African descends, seem to be affected more often than men.
