Many of our patients present with complaints of hair breakage or hair loss. This is not unusual, as studies have shown that alopecia (hair loss) is among the top five complaints in patients with ethnic skin. For a majority of these patients, developing a healthy hair care regimen is a critical part of the treatment plan. This requires an intimate understanding of the unique properties of ethnic hair as well as the most common hair care practices among different racial and ethnic groups. In this book, the reader will learn about the biological differences in hair structure among different races as well as fi nd a detailed discussion about hairstyling practices and their potentially damaging effects on the hair. Additionally, we provide practical management recommendations from a dermatologist’s perspective. We believe this book will be helpful not only to dermatologists but also to cosmetologists, hair professionals, and anyone else who has an interest in hair care. We truly hope you enjoy our book.
