Causes of Hair Loss in African Americans
Men and women from all racial groups typically experience hair loss for the same reason: male pattern baldness and female pattern baldness, respectively. In addition, prolonged hairstyles like weaves and braids can cause traction alopecia.
Non-surgical solutions, including topical treatment and laser therapy, can promote hair growth while slowing hair loss, but the only permanent solution to male pattern baldness, female pattern baldness, and traction alopecia is a hair transplantation.
Experience Matters
When it comes to hair transplant results, experience matters. Bosley physicians have performed tens of thousands of hair transplants for African American patients, and they know how the unique characteristics of African American hair can affect the look and density of your results.
