Stress causes hair loss by disrupting hair growth cycles, and combining medical and cosmetic treatments can help manage it.
research P18-14 Monitoring of cortisone and cortisol levels in hair during pregnancy
Cortisone and cortisol levels in pregnant women’s hair increase as labor approaches, indicating higher stress.
research Sources of variation in hair cortisol in wild and captive non-human primates
Hair cortisol levels in primates are useful for stress assessment but vary by age, sex, species, and hair collection methods.
research HPA axis stress reactivity and hair cortisol concentrations in recently detoxified alcoholics and healthy controls with and without childhood maltreatment
Alcohol dependence affects stress hormone levels more than childhood maltreatment.
research Hair Cortisol Concentrations in Adolescent Girls with Anorexia Nervosa are Lower Compared to Healthy and Psychiatric Controls
Adolescent girls with anorexia nervosa have lower hair cortisol levels than healthy and psychiatric peers.

Hot water and UV exposure reduce hair cortisol levels, with the back of the head showing the most consistent levels.
research Radiolabel validation of cortisol in the hair of rhesus monkeys
Hair cortisol can indicate long-term stress levels, but hair growth rate differences may affect accuracy.
research Measurement of steroid hormones by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with small amounts of hair
A new method accurately measures steroid hormones in a few hair strands and could help study chronic stress and hair loss.

Monkeys with hair loss during pregnancy showed higher stress hormone levels and invested differently in their offspring.
research Economic disparities in parental hair cortisol are associated with externalizing behavior in children
Lower family income is linked to more stress in parents and more behavior problems in children.
research Does hair cortisol concentration reflect measurable regulatory biology of the HPA axis in healthy humans?
Hair cortisol concentration partly reflects HPA axis regulation but doesn't capture all its complexities.
