Women place great importance on their hair. It Is associated with youth, vitality and beauty, so losing your hair can understandably be a stressful experience. Hair loss can act as a trigger for anxiety and depression. Unique in appearance and structure, African American hair is especially fragile and prone to abuse and damage. Women of Color may be more susceptible to hair loss due to tight styles that pull at the root, including some weaves, corn rows, tight pony tails, extensions, dreadlocks and braids. These harsh styling techniques may cause thinning, breakage, excessive shedding and, worst-case scenario, scarring and balding.
