Different hair disorders have specific treatments and outcomes, with some resolving on their own and others requiring medication or emotional support.
research A hypothetical pathogenesis model for androgenic alopecia: clarifying the dihydrotestosterone paradox and rate-limiting recovery factors
The model suggests that scalp tension could lead to hair loss, with factors like blood vessel hardening, enlarged oil glands, and poor microcirculation also playing a role. It also hints at a possible link between skull shape and baldness pattern.
research Guidelines for management of androgenetic alopecia based on BASP classification-the Asian consensus committee guideline

research Regional Dermatology
The document explains hair and nail biology, common hair loss conditions and treatments, oral and genital skin diseases, and the risks and treatments associated with squamous cell carcinoma.
research A Randomized Controlled, Single-Observer Blinded Study on the Safety and Efficacy of a Combination of 678nm Helmet-Type Low-level Laser Therapy and Topical Minoxidil 5% Versus Topical Minoxidil 5% Alone in the Treatment of Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Using a laser helmet with Minoxidil works better for male hair loss than Minoxidil alone, with no extra side effects.
research Scalp alopecias in richly pigmented patients
Hair care practices like using relaxers and tight braiding can lead to permanent hair loss in black women.
research A randomized, controlled pilot trial comparing platelet-rich plasma to topical minoxidil foam for treatment of androgenic alopecia in women
Platelet-rich plasma helps hair regrowth and improves quality of life in women with hair loss, but minoxidil may be more effective.
research Minoxidil 5% Solution for Topical Treatment of Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome
Minoxidil 5% solution significantly improved hair density in a girl with loose anagen hair syndrome over 28 months, with no side effects.
research Promising Results with 2% Minoxidil Solution in Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome in a Pediatric Age Group: A Case Report

research Hair Transplantation in Migraine Headache Patients
Some migraine sufferers had no more headaches after getting a hair transplant.
research The Role of the Hairless (hr) Gene in the. Regulation of Hair Follicle Catagen Transformation
The hairless (hr) gene is essential for normal hair follicle function and its mutation leads to hair loss.
research Prostaglandin-Induced Hair Growth
Latanoprost can make eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker.
research Systematic Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma Use in Androgenetic Alopecia Compared with Minoxidil®, Finasteride®, and Adult Stem Cell-Based Therapy
PRP injections may be a safe, effective alternative for hair loss treatment compared to minoxidil and finasteride.
research Transcriptional profiling in alopecia areata defines immune and cell cycle control related genes within disease-specific signatures
The study found that immune responses disrupt hair growth cycles, causing hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Treatment strategies for alopecia
Some treatments work for common baldness, but there's less evidence for other hair loss types, and more research is needed.
research Superiority of dutasteride over finasteride in hair regrowth and reversal of miniaturization in men with androgenetic alopecia: A randomized controlled open-label, evaluator-blinded study
Dutasteride is more effective than finasteride at increasing hair count and reversing hair thinning in men with hair loss, but both have similar side effects.

research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
