Traction alopecia

Traction alopecia is often considered when hairline or margin change appears alongside repeated styling tension or friction history.

What it is

This category is often discussed when repeated tension from styling, extensions, or friction affects the margins and outer hairline.

Common signs

  • Margin-focused or temple-focused change
  • History of repeated high-tension styling
  • Tenderness, breakage, or edge stress
