A virus infection can be countered with vaccines while antibiotics work great with bacteria and funguses but like many kinds of autoimmune disorders, Alopecia Areata is hard to cure because the root of the problem is created by your own body instead of an external factor.
Children with alopecia areata usually grow their back without any treatments. They react very little to their alopecia areata, having very little impact if any. The preschool child is so busy exploring their world, acquiring skills and gaining independence, that his appearance is insignificant to himself and his peers. Between the age of six and twelve, children have gained experience and interacted with enough people to grasp the idea that views of the world differ, and that it is important to pay attention to what others think and feel. While this ability to see things as others do helps children become more empathetic and considerate, it also tends to make children more self-conscious.
Children at this stage of development are much more concerned about how others view them, how they may differ from others, and whether others might be making fun of them. Since children at this age have become so aware of individual differences, they unfortunately are more likely to poke fun at those who don’t’ fit their definition of ‘normal’. Even if a child has had alopecia areata since infancy, he now faces new problems of adjustment. Peers are becoming a more significant part of his life and the desire to ‘fit in’ is becoming stronger. Even a child with a very healthy self-concept may feel threatened. However if a child feels good about herself and has at least one skill she enjoys and is passionate about, the odds are increased that she will deal successfully with these difficulties.
When Alopecia Areata occurs to an adult, situation is little bit different, since adults are more conscious about their self-image. If it occurs that your body is attacked by its own immune system, it often requires more than just medications or other forms of treatment to heal it. Most of the time, the only real way to turn off the disease is by your own body itself. Therefore, if you are suffering from AA, you should need to know your chances and follow only the recommended treatments. The success rates of the treatments vary by individual but here are some statistics:
- Around 75% of people with patchy alopecia Areata within the first year will respond better to treatments.
- People who don't respond to treatments after two years are highly unlikely to benefit from any further treatments.
- The longer and more serious Alopecia Areata persists, the slimmer the chances of treatments will be.
There is no clear way to foresee the outcome of the treatments at all because some people who do not respond to treatments at all can have their hair growing back the soon after while people who respond very well to hair loss treatments might find the disease reoccurring and regressing further.
Marbo Shampoo against hair loss contains herbal ingredients from different medicinal herbs. Active ingredients full of vitamins and mineral salts stimulate local circulation and hair root renewal. Sage and rosemary extracts regulate sebum secretion, prevent scalp greasing and soothe scalp itching and irritation.

Therapeutic Modalities For Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is a common, autoimmune disease that can affect any hair- bearing area. Alopecia areata is a lymphocyte cell-mediated inflammatory type of hair loss, but its pathogenesis is not fully understood. The disease can present as a single patch of hair loss, multiple patches, or extensive hair loss in a form of total loss of scalp hair (alopecia totalis) or loss of entire scalp and body hair (alopecia universalis). A number of treatments can induce hair regrowth in alopecia areata but do not change the course of the disease. Treatment is more effective in patchy alopecia areata than in alopecia totalis/alopecia universalis. Therapy for alopecia areata should be tailored in light of severity of the condition and the patient’s age.
Many therapeutic modalities have been used to treat alopecia areata, with variable efficacy and safety profiles. The treatment plan is designed according to the patient’s age and extent of disease. Several studies have shown the efficacy of intralesional corticosteroid injections. For limited scalp alopecia areata, intralesional corticosteroid therapy is considered as the drug of choice by many experts. The most widely used agent is triamcinolone acetonide. The injections can be repeated at 4–6 weekly intervals. The use of mesotherapy multi-injectors with 5–7 needles is an alternative approach to decrease injection pain and to make the procedure more homogenous. Side effects include skin atrophy and telangiectasia which can be minimized by the use of smaller volumes and avoiding superficial injections.
Many forms of topical corticosteroids have been prescribed for alopecia areata, including creams, gels, ointments, lotions, and foams. Topical corticosteroids are far less effective in alopecia totalis and alopecia universalis. A highly potent topical corticosteroid under occlusion is the preferred method when using topical corticosteroids. Folliculitis is a common side effect to topical corticosteroids.
PUVA is a method of administering a dilute psoralen solution selectively to the scalp for 20 minutes using a cotton towel as a turban. The patient’s scalp is then exposed to ultraviolet A radiation. Treatment sessions are performed two or three times per week. PUVA-turban therapy lacks the systemic side effects of oral PUVA and can be considered as alternative therapy for patients with alopecia areata.
One important step that should not be overlooked during the course of management of alopecia areata is offering psychological support to foster increased self-esteem and adaptation to this disease. Helping patients with alopecia areata cope with depression and an unpredictable disease like alopecia can be achieved by several ways, including education of the patient about the nature of disease, psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, antidepressants and support groups. Hypnotherapy may significantly improve depression, anxiety, and quality of life, but not hair regrowth .
If these therapies fail or are not tolerated, third-line therapeutic options can be discussed with patients in terms of the expected outcome of therapy and possible side effects. These agents include methotrexate with or without a systemic corticosteroid, azathioprine, cyclosporine, and pulse therapy of corticosteroids. While using these drugs, close monitoring of patients is important to avoid possible side effects.
Marbo Shampoo 03 is a product for totally natural, mild and hygienic hair wash, which is still used by many of our customers. It is also recommended as preventive measure in treating colored and natural hair. Dermatologists have proven the efficacy of Marbo hair loss shampoo . It is effective against hair loss because it contains ingredients from different medicinal herbs.

Alopecia Barbae – Treatments
Alopecia barbae is a subtype of alopecia areata, which is an autoimmune disease that causes hair loss. Different types of alopecia areata are identified according to which part of the body the condition appears to affect. This type of spot baldness is not a symptom of any other disease or disorder. As an autoimmune disease, it occurs because the immune system has mistaken hair growing in the beard as an invading organism and attacks hair follicles in order to protect the body from this misidentified intruder Alopecia barbae is not contagious and is not a painful condition.
There are several factors which allegedly cause alopecia barbae, but scientists are still unable to determine the exact root cause of this condition despite modern technology. Theories considering the Causes of Alopecia majorly revolve around genetics and hormonal imbalance. Genetics play a big role because it has been observed that people with family members having alopecia of any kind has a higher percentage of acquiring the condition at some point in their lives compared to those without. Another thing is that the imbalance brought about by the rush or lack of a specific hormone in the body can also cause changes in the amount of hair in the body.
One specific androgen, known as dihydrotestosterone or DHT is thought to play the most critical part in all kinds of alopecia, especially androgenetic alopecia. Hair growth is also determined by the amount of blood circulation in the near the skin surface. If the blood circulation gets compromised, hair loss will follow because hair follicles cannot produce and re-grow hair due to lack of nutrients and oxygen brought about by the blood.
Alopecia barbae Treatment options for are limited and some are severe with low success rates, lengthy treatment plans as well as side effects from the treatments. The treatments include use of 5% Minoxidil to help encourage hair regrowth. While this treatment can help, there is not a high percentage reversal rate in cases of alopecia barbae. Also, steroids are used as a treatment for Alopecia Barbae. Daily topical application of a steroid cream onto the beard patch is the most common way to use steroid therapy. Some doctors will give the patient the option of a regiment of steroid injections once every four to six weeks for up to six months to help the hair grow back. However, they do not always give results, and it can even occur that the beard patch stays permanently without hair and the skin of the beard patch can become thin and easily damaged. Minoxidil is often used in conjunction with steroids, as it appears to enhance the action of the steroids.
Marbo Lotion quickly stops hair loss regardless of its cause. This product is very easy to use and gives fast results. We highly recommend use of this product together with Marbo Shampoo 03 for best results. Recommended in case of different scalp problems: dandruff, oily hair, seborrhoeic dermatitis, scalp itching, thin and weak hair, hair loss for hormone imbalance (problems with thyroid gland, cystic ovaries), occasional seasonal hair loss, cytostatic therapy and radiation, for hair damaged by chemical treatments.

Nutritional Deficiency As a Reason Of Hair Falling
Few Advices For Hair Loss Prevention
Hair loss affects people in different ways: emotionally, socially or psychologically. Hair loss is a common condition and it can affect anyone. Fortunately, scientists continue to research on the different types of disorders affecting hair growth. Knowing what is affecting your hair growth helps to identify the right treatment. Scientists are also researching on the different types of treatments that can be used, their effectiveness and side effects.
Further causes of hair loss include thyroid diseases, low levels of iron in your body, and prescriptive drugs given for blood thymes, acne arthritis, and heart disease. Hair loss can also occur in women who take birth control pills, as well as after giving birth. You can try following these few ways of Hair Loss prevention :
- Always keep your scalp and hair clean - Never wash your hair with too hot water - Try to use a mild shampoo to wash your hair - Never form a habit of brushing the hair too much - Oil massage is very good for your scalp. Use hot coconut oil or almond oil for your scalp. - Always use conditioner for your hair to keep them fine - Use a pack of honey and egg yolk for your hair.
Baldness is thought to be inherited in most cases but this does not mean those people whose parents have thinning hair may always end with baldness. There are also hormonal affects that control and cause hair loss. Many factors can slow and speed up the hair loss rate but still there are hair loss treatments that can slow down and in some cases stop the hair fall. If a person has a little baldness or slow baldness rate than it may be controllable.
Consume additional protein daily. Hair is made from protein and hair growth responds well to the inclusion of lean animal proteins and other forms of healthy protein added to the diet. Proteins are the major source of energy and the reason for hair, nail growth and strength. Loss of hair may be a result of less quantity of proteins in the diet and it may be controlled by using pulses, meat, eggs, and protein rich food in diet but excess amount of it may also be harmful as proteins get accumulated in human body in the form of fats because proteins cling to fats. Similarly, if baldness is not on the whole scalp but has emptied only little part of the scalp, this falling hair may be controlled by using shampoos and conditioners of good quality. Reduce alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking to prevent thinning hair.

Why Do Women Experience Hair Loss After Pregnancy
Pregnancy is a wonderful time in a woman's life, but it can take its toll on her body as well. Eating healthy, getting plenty of sleep and taking prenatal vitamins can prevent some of them or at least lessen their impact. One thing that plagues many women that has little to do with a woman's health is hair loss after pregnancy .
Hair normally goes through an anagen cycle, which is the growth phase and telogen, the resting phase. The anagen cycle lasts four to seven years, when you will experience hair growth of about half an inch per month. After the growth period, the hair enters the resting phase, which usually last about three months. Then follows anagen again, growing a fresh hair and pushing the old one out of the follicle, so that it falls out. Some hair follicles can be in telogen all the time, and it is considered normal to lose 50 to 100 hairs a day. Once the baby is born and the pregnancy is eliminated, hormones start to change their course rapidly. You will enter in the telogen phase immediately that lasts for about three months. So after the baby comes into the world, you lose the entire safe and secure hair strands at the same time.
Pregnancy period is an extreme state of stress and since extreme stress has been known to be one of the cause of hair loss it can enhance it. Several mental and physical transitions maybe experienced after pregnancy. This is due to alterations in the woman's body hormone that occurred during the pregnancy period. These alterations vary from woman to woman, depending on the care taken during this period and the body type. Statistics show that about 75% of women experience loss of hair after this period. It is natural to lose some hair after pregnancy. While it isn't something that any woman would like to have happen, it need not be an unexpected surprise, as long as she understands the reasons behind it.
The hormonal situation in a woman's body while she is pregnant keeps the hair in a strong growth phase. This is due to the fact that she is not losing hair that she would normally be losing and so the density of her hair increases during her pregnancy. Not only do you have above average normal hair growth during pregnancy , you also do not lose hair during pregnancy that you normally would.
Taking excellent care of yourself is essential to minimizing hair loss. Not only do you need proper nutrition, but you also need an adequate amount of rest. However, getting plenty of sleep with a new baby in the house is almost impossible, but if you can get a friend or a relative to stay with the baby to give you a few extra hours of sleep, you should try to arrange it. You can also try to rest any time the baby rests.
Marbo Shampoo is effective against hair loss, because it contains herbal ingredients from different medicinal herbs. Active ingredients full of vitamins and mineral salts stimulate local circulation and hair root renewal. Sage and rosemary extracts regulate sebum secretion, prevent scalp greasing and soothe scalp itching and irritation.

Alopecia Universalis – Rapid Loss of Hair, Eyebrows and Eyelashes
Alopecia Areata is a medical condition when the person that suffers from it, loses hair. Although it’s benign and it does not live scars, it can cause enormous stress for the patient. It can manifest itself in many different patterns. Types of alopecia areata are: diffuse alopecia, alopecia monolocularis, alopecia areata multilocularis, alopecia barbae, alopecia totalis and alopecia universalis. The last two types are the rarest and the hardest forms of this disease. Alopecia areata totalis is total loss of hair on the scalp and Alopecia Universalis is the loss of hair over the entire scalp and body.
There was a study about a family which was affected with Alopecia Universalis . Three consecutive generations had it. Children with the disease were otherwise healthy, without any inflammatory processes that could inhibit hair growth. Research showed very few hair follicles, they were born without eyebrows or eyelashes, without any hair in general and never developed them.
Research contained analysis of the chromosomes of seven affected members from the family that had this condition in order to detect any genetic similarities that would show that the disease is genetically predetermined. They found a marker at the location 8p12, persistent in all seven family members, but they were not able to determine the exact gene that was at this location.
Researchers conducted experiments with mice, so they can determine if there is genetic similarity in hairless mice with the ones they found in human. The good thing is that they found several examples of alopecia in mice. They identified a cDNA sequence that gave them the coding sequence of the human "hairless" gene. This gene is expressed in the skin and brain in humans and mice. It appears to encode a zinc-finger transcription factor. The results of the research showed that there is mutation in the "hairless" genes of all the affected individuals in the family that was studied.
There are a large number of hair loss products out there that claim to help men deal with hair loss. You should make sure you do some research before you decide which one to use. Herbal shampoos for natural hair care have several advantages over commercial ones: they are easy to procure, inexpensive, and safe since they are natural and have no side effects.

Henna As a Natural Hair Coloring Alternative
Women like to color their hair to either change their look or cover up grays, but they don't like the harsh chemicals found in commercial dyes going on their heads once every few weeks. Consumers are becoming more concerned about their health and are increasingly looking for healthier alternatives to the current chemical-laden options commonly available.
Some of the more prominent natural hair dyes you may have heard of is henna, which is a pigment derived from a natural plant commonly found in the dry, arid parts of Africa. It is a tall shrub, and when it is dried, it can be ground into a fine powder and used to dye the skin and hair. Henna tattoos and body art are popular in the Indian culture, and so this powder is often used for that purpose. It is also used as a popular alternative to chemical hair dyes.
Henna alone will always result in a very red color, so you can mix henna with other types of natural, vegetable and plant derived ingredients and arrive at several different beautiful shades of color. It is free from many of the chemicals that make harsh over the counter hair coloring kits and salon formulas that are toxic. Their ingredients often contain numerous known carcinogens and irritants. Many people think that when they are just using something topically, it doesn't matter what it contains, which is a huge misconception. Since the skin is the largest organ on the human body, it is capable of absorbing, and passing along to the blood stream, anything that comes into contact with it. Anything that you put on your skin or your scalp will absorb into your blood stream.
The chemicals you may find in a typical over the counter hair dye kit or at a salon are peroxide, a chemical called PPD, resorcinol and ammonia. That is just a handful of the toxic, irritating ingredients in most hair coloring products. Not only are they known irritants which give of noxious fumes as well as cause allergic reactions, but they also are known carcinogens.
When shopping for henna or any other plant based hair dye, it is important that you do your research to ensure you are not buying an adulterated product. Some brands may lace their "natural" color with toxins or heavy metals without telling you. There are a few reputable brands that you usually can find by paying attention to what is written about them by unbiased parties.
Some people like to use a combination of henna and indigo to get the color they desire, such as a darker brunette, black or light brown. Indigo is a very deeply pigmented blue plant. When mixed with henna, it can produce lovely shades of color for those with darker hair. Often times henna and indigo dyes are mixed with something acidic to help the color take, such as lemon juice or apple cider vinegar. While the process is a bit more time consuming than traditional commercial hair colors, it is usually well worth it. Many who use natural dyes feel that it makes their hair look shinier and healthier.

There are a few reputable brands that you usually can find by paying attention to what is written about them by unbiased parties.
Some people like to use a combination of henna and indigo to get the color they desire, such as a darker brunette, black or light brown. Indigo is a very deeply pigmented blue plant. When mixed with henna, it can produce lovely shades of color for those with darker hair. Often times henna and indigo dyes are mixed with something acidic to help the color take, such as lemon juice or apple cider vinegar. While the process is a bit more time consuming than traditional commercial hair colors, it is usually well worth it. Many who use natural dyes feel that it makes their hair look shinier and healthier.
Marbo Hair Loss Shampoo contains herbal ingredients from different medicinal herbs. Active ingredients full of vitamins and mineral salts stimulate local circulation and hair root renewal. Sage and rosemary extracts regulate sebum secretion, prevent scalp greasing and soothe scalp itching and irritation.
Living with Hair Loss – You are not Alone
Alopecia is the loss or the absence of hair. Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease, which can also involve hair all over the body. In simple terms, the immune system, for unknown reasons, attacks the hair root and causes hair loss. Types of Alopecia :
• Localized Alopecia areata, which is the most common type. This form of alopecia usually presents with round, smooth patches of various sizes of hair loss. The duration of alopecia areata is variable. It may resolve spontaneously within weeks or be recurrent over a lifetime. It may go away on its own, or may last for many years. It can involve any hair-bearing site, including eyebrows, eyelashes and beards. • Alopecia totalis: Loss of all hair on the scalp. Alopecia universalis: Loss of all scalp and body hair.
There are few symptoms associated with alopecia areata. The surface of the nails may appear dull and rough, nails may have tiny dents, ridges or small dents referred to as nail pitting. This does not typically cause any discomfort. Alopecia areata affects approximately 1- 2 percent of the population. This common skin disease is highly unpredictable and cyclical.
Living with alopecia areata can be difficult, especially in a culture that views hair as a sign of youth and good health. However, it is important to remember that more than 4 million people nationwide are living with Alopecia Areata at some point in their lives, so you are not alone. A few things can be done to minimize the physical dangers or discomforts of hair loss, including the use of: caps, wigs, sunscreen, and/or antibiotic ointment as necessary. Alopecia Areata:
• Is not contagious -- children who have the disease are generally healthy, otherwise • Is not a painful disease • Does not make people feel sick, physically • Does not reduce life expectancy • Should not interfere with the ability to achieve such life goals as going to school, working, marrying, raising a family, playing sports, and exercising. On the other hand, the emotional aspects of living with hair loss can be challenging. Many people cope by speaking with others who are facing the same problem, learning as much as they can about alopecia areata, seeking counseling to help build a positive self-image, all in all – feeling that you are not alone. Living with hair loss can be hard, especially in a culture that views hair as a sign of youth and good health. The key to coping is valuing yourself for who you are, not for how much hair you have or don't have.

Who Can be Affected By Alopecia Areata?
Alopecia areata is a malfunction of the immune system when the body begins to attack its own hair follicle. However it is very selective in which areas it attacks, so that circular / oval shaped bald patches develop. These are silky smooth to the touch, because all hair including vellus hair (soft downy hair) has been lost. Currently there is no medical explanation as to why the patches are selected in the manner in which they are. Accordingly there is no test that can be done to determine if the patches will stay contained in the given area or spread to another area.
If you know hair loss problems that few people suffer, than alopecia areata is one of hair loss types. Alopecia Areata
(AA) is common form of hair loss, unpredictable and not painful disease. Usually people who have this condition are losing their hair in small, round patches from areas of the body, usually the scalp. Some people even lose all their scalp hair or known as alopecia totalis. Almost 2% of population in the U.S. is affected with this condition - both female and male and in variety of ages. Most case is found in children or young people, the immune system, for unknown reason attacks the hair root and causes hair loss.
Alopecia areata is a fairly common autoimmune disorder affecting over five million Americans. It affects males and females equally and is present in all races. People who are genetically predisposed to alopecia areata are usually unaware of it until the first bald patch appears. It is believed that something "triggers" the alopecia areata in those who are predisposed to the condition. Possible triggers include viruses, infection, high fever, trauma, extreme prolonged stress, allergies, etc.
To know whether the 'exclamation point hairs' are really what they appear to be, your doctor may decide to gently tug on them. If they were indeed caused by Alopecia areata, then they would be pulled off quite easily. The whole situation might be hard on you, but there's bright sunshine after all, because in more than ninety percent of all cases of Alopecia areata, the symptoms disappear on their own without medical intervention. For some reason, certain environmental triggers such as stress cause the occurrence of AA in patients. Remove the stress, the AA goes away.
There are a large number of hair loss products out there that claim to help men deal with hair loss. You should make sure you do some research before you decide which one to use. Herbal shampoos for natural hair care have several advantages over commercial ones: they are easy to procure, inexpensive, and safe since they are natural and have no side effects.
There is a lot of product for natural hair care on the market today. Marbo Hair is one of the products who are 100 % natural. This product can be effectively used for loss of all body and face hair. Using regularly Marbo Lotion and Marbo Shampoo stimulates new hair growth on thinning scalp and bald regions, while your hair becomes firmer and healthier.

The Impact Alopecia Areata Has On People
Proper Diet Can Prevent Hair Loss
You must understand how vital a proper diet is to maintaining healthy hair. A good diet can help you deal with other diseases, physiological problems and stress. When we are under stress our body is depleted of the nutrients we need for healthy hair growth. Everyone deals with stress, it’s just a regular part of life. Having a diet that will help your body deal with stress will also help you to maintain healthy hair growth.
You should make sure that vitamin B is included in your diet. This will help stop hair loss that is caused by stress. Free radicals will hurt your overall health as well as hair growth. So providing antioxidants for your body is a good idea. You should treat hair loss as soon as you notice it. If you create an actionable plan for dealing with hair loss and carry it out as soon as possible you can get the best possible results. You should talk to your doctor at the first sign of hair loss.
One popular way to deal with hair loss is natural supplements. If you’re looking to maintain healthy hair there are many different supplements that might help you. In most cases, you can find all of the stuff that you need at your local grocery store. Most of those natural hair loss treatments that you see advertised on the Internet are supplements that you can buy in the store.
You need certain nutrients to maintain healthy hair growth. Calcium, vitamin C, vitamin B, and folic acid are some of the key vitamins and minerals that you need for hair growth. You should look into the following supplements if you’re having problems maintaining healthy hair. Supplements with essential fatty acids like fish oil, flaxseed oil and supplements with antioxidants like grape seed extracts are good for maintaining healthy hair growth. Kelp is also good for getting you the nutrients you need for hair growth .
Biotin comes from the b-complex of vitamins. It’s also called vitamin H or vitamin B-7. Biotin helps with the synthesis of amino acids and fatty acids. Amino acids help provide the body with protein. You need protein for strong healthy hair. A lack of biotin can cause hair damage and fragile nails. You get enough biotin in your diet by eating chicken, cauliflower, shellfish, and chicken breast. In some cases, you might want to consider taking silica to help you absorb biotin and other vitamins.
You should always eat a variety of different foods to get all of the different nutrients you need for healthy hair. You should consider eating some if not all of your vegetables raw so you can get more of the necessary vitamins and minerals for hair growth. Most of those nutrients are lost because of cooking. If you don’t like your vegetables raw try steaming them using a good steamer. That works just as well.

Ayurveda methods for Treating Alopecia Areata
You Don’t Have to Suffer From Traction Alopecia
Traction alopecia, unlike other forms of hair loss conditions, is not the result of age or genetics, so actually no one has to suffer from it. Traction Alopecia mainly affects African-American women. The condition seems to affect more and more young people. Good hair care does take time, but the final results are often worth it. You'll maintain a full head of healthy hair that's not damaged.
Hair style can cause hair loss. Ponytails are convenient, but they can also significantly damage your hair. They are good for your hair's ends, but not always so good for the delicate hair around your temples. It's alright if you wear it from time to time and switch them up by changing the parts of your hair and by loosening your hair at night before going to sleep. Find several styles you like and that work with your face shape and change them based on the seasons or your mood. Not only will you enjoy a style switch, you'll also take care of your hairline in the process.
The rise in the number of sparse hairlines seemed to coincide roughly with the advent of home relaxer kits. This occurs even with the children in their teen years with that have bald hairlines. Although relaxers are easy and affordable to buy, it's preferable to have a professional apply these straightening chemicals. People don't always follow the directions on the box, or they use a stronger formula than they need. Leaving relaxers on longer than the recommended time is also a surefire way to eventual damage.
You should never feel pain due to your style. If it hurts, it's an indication that your follicles are being pulled beyond what's safe for them. Once follicles are dead, it is hard to bring them back to life. Elastic ponytail holders with metal pieces are huge culprits in damaging children's hair. Too often, the hair is pulled too tightly in order to create a neat style. Year after year of tight ponytails, and possible relaxer use, leads to damage and hair loss in the very young. Instead of relying on these damaging elastics, try styles with pulled-back ponytails being more of an exception instead of the norm.
You can try natural hair care products as a treatment method. Their ingredients full of vitamins and mineral salts stimulate local circulation and hair root renewal. They are easy to procure, inexpensive, and safe since they are natural and have no side effects.

Autoimmune Skin Disease – Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is a highly unpredictable, autoimmune skin disease that may lead to the loss of hair on the scalp and elsewhere on the body. This disease affects males and females of all ages and races, but it often begins in childhood. This disease affects approximately 2 percent of the population, or about 4.5 million people in the United States alone.
The exact cause of Alopecia is unknown. It is thought that a combination of genes predisposes certain people to this disease, and some trigger-or possibly the confluence of several things-sets the disease off. The immune system then mistakenly attacks hair follicles, which shrink in size, arresting visible hair production.
Hair loss could also occur by mechanical means. One of them is caused by habit, like pulling hair unconsciously from the scalp when watching television or during inactivity. Another is from the use of cosmetics like hair dyes and other hair treatment products. It could also be caused by too tight a ponytail or other hairstyles that pull the hair. Iron deficiency could also cause Alopecia, chemotherapy treatment is the most common cause of hair loss in people suffering from malignancies. Treatment for alopecia seen in these examples is simply removal of the offending causes.
Many doctors treat alopecia areata with minoxidil. An alternative to minoxidil is diphencyprone (DPC), a chemical also used in developing film. Workers that were developing films for a longer period found that it caused hair to sprout in unwanted places if they failed to wash after using it. While DCP is not a prescription drug, it is in no way a natural treatment, and applying it requires the use of protective garments and special ventilation under professional supervision.
The advantage of DCP is that hair does not fall out immediately when treatment is discontinued, as is the case with minoxidil. In Alopecia universalis (total hair loss), DCP produces cosmetically acceptable results only about 17 percent of the time, but when hair loss is less than 50 percent, DCP is 100 percent effective. Hair typically begins to reappear after 3 months of treatment, but it is sometimes necessary to take the drug for as long as 2 years before hair regrowth occurs.
When hair loss is less than 50 percent, hair restoration typically takes about 10 months. Side effects are common, including blistering (45 percent of users), freckling (12 percent), vitiligo (2 percent), and swollen lymph glands (2 percent). Hair that grows back during DCP treatment usually lasts 2-3 years before resumption of treatment is necessary. DCP must be applied weekly to be effective. It is available from dermatologists.
Marbo hair growth shampoo contains herbal ingredients from different medicinal herbs. Active ingredients full of vitamins and mineral salts stimulate local circulation and hair root renewal. Sage and rosemary extracts regulate sebum secretion, prevent scalp greasing and soothe scalp itching and irritation. The results clearly demonstrated that Marbo Activator is one of the most effective natural hair care products for growing new hair and that its effect is the fastest when applied together with Lotion and Shampoo.

Diffuse Alopecia
Alopecia Areata is a highly unpredictable, autoimmune skin disease that may lead to the loss of hair on the scalp and elsewhere on the body. This disease affects males and females of all ages and races, but it often begins in childhood. This disease affects approximately 2 percent of the population, or about 4.5 million people in the United States alone. It affects the young as well as the old, men as well as women. Hair loss from the body can be hidden but that from the scalp can be very embarrassing.
Diffuse Alopecia is a type of alopecia areata which affects more women than men. This disease results in hair loss as well as less density of hair. You see a mixture of dark and grey hair. The three steps in hair growth are Anagen, Catagen and Telogen. Hair grows in the first stage. It is dormant in the second stage. It falls in the third stage as the hair follicle rests. Then the cycle repeats. But in Diffuse Alopceia the hair skips the second stage and so, hair falls in clumps. At the borders of the bald patch hair breaks at ends and resembles exclamation marks.
Diffuse Alopecia could be caused due to mental or physical trauma, malnutrition, lack of vitamins or an incorrect diet could cause this disease. Medicines, pregnancy, hormonal imbalance, sickness or operations can be the reasons also. If you keep coloring, bleaching or curling your hair or if you are stressed, it could lead to this problem.
In case of alopecia areata, or areal hair loss, treatment is generally out-patient or it can be carried out in dermatological hospital (when hair loss process is extensive and prolonged). Vitamins A, E, C, H are used, as well as nicotinic, pantothenic and folic acids. Also doctors resort to preparations of furocoumarin, sedatives means, ACTH (drenocorticotropic hormones) and glucocorticoids in such cases. The latter are also used exteriorly as ointments. Rosental paste, alcoholic and etheric solutions with addition of sulfur, salicylic acid, tincture of siliculose pepper are applied. Also irradiation by UV-beams or photochemotherapy is sometimes used in course of therapy. Among physiotherapeutic means used in alopecia treatment are d'arsonvalization, cryotherapy with snow of carbonic acid, cryomassage and massage with electrobrush.
