Hair Loss/statistics for baldness

Expert: Jason Paul - 7/2/2004


Question
Has anyone ever figured out what ethnic groups are hit by baldness and which ones aren't or is it across the board?  Or where can I look for this information?

Thanks for whatever you can tell me.

Thank you for your question.

My research has shown me that race has nothing to do with losing hair.  However, genetic weakness syndrome can cause problems, but this can be overcome.  Visit hairsavers.net to learn more about scalp and hair problems.

I can answer questions concerning why hair thins and leads to balding areas. Why the scalp itches and flakes. What causes receding hairlines. What causes hair to break off and shed. Why does the hair become dry or too oily.

Experience

I am a Trichologist. (Specialist in hair and scalp problems) I have been researching the causes of thinning hair for over 30 years. I established the very first Hair Clinic in New York and was the director of The Hair Biological Center in Manhattan and the head of the Trichology department at Paul Mitchell's famous Superhair Salon also in Manhattan. My research has led me to what I believe to be one of the major causes of thinning hair in both males and females. I would like to share my findings with anyone who wants to learn how to correct this problem.
