Traction alopecia in Sikh male patients.

Jinny James1, Rao N Saladi, Joshua L Fox.   

Abstract

This article reports on traction alopecia among Sikh males as a result of stress on the hair from wearing a turban. Treatment for this condition in such a population is difficult. Permanent removal of the turban is religiously forbidden. Therefore, the traction continues, as will the alopecia, possibly accompanied by seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis.
