Hair loss occurs in men, women and children. It is more common in men than in women. In children, hair loss occurs due to many reasons. The few main causes are infections due to fungus, alopecia areata; hair styles that strongly pull the hair out of their roots, telogen effluvium, malnutrition, surgery and chemotherapy. There is a small fungal infection called tenia capitis which results in hair loss.
A small patch of baldness may appear in a region of the scalp in this disease. There is no effect of tenia capitis once the child reaches the teenage. If the child has a hair style like a ponytail or braids then it leads to hair fall. Sudden stress in the child due to any particular reason may cause hair fall. We should always dry our hair before combing so that there is not much hair fall. Dry the hair using a towel or under the sun as this will not result in hair splits.
