Abstract
This article presents a case series of hair system-induced alopecia in six Caucasian women. The patients experienced exacerbated hair loss in areas where the hair system was attached. Trichoscopy revealed features of both traction alopecia and pressure alopecia, suggesting a combined mechanism of action. The study highlights the need for dermatologists to be aware of this complication and familiar with trichoscopy to differentiate it from other conditions. However, the study has limitations, including a small sample size and lack of histopathological studies. [Extracted from the article]
