Baldness, also known as alopecia or hair loss, refers to the partial or complete absence of hair. This condition can manifest on the scalp or other parts of the body. While it's commonly associated with ageing, it can affect individuals of any age and gender.
Baldness can be caused by a combination of genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors.

This type of baldness is characterized by a receding hairline and thinning of hair at the crown, commonly observed in men.
Similar to male pattern baldness, this condition typically entails overall thinning of hair rather than specific bald spots, primarily affecting women.
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder that leads to sudden hair loss in small, round patches on the scalp or other areas of the body.
Temporary hair loss caused by significant physical or emotional stress, illness, or hormonal changes, leading to an increased shedding of hair.

While some types of baldness, such as androgenetic alopecia, have a genetic component that cannot be prevented, adopting a healthy lifestyle, managing stress, and avoiding harsh hair treatments may help maintain hair health.
The reversibility of baldness depends on various factors, including the underlying cause, treatment approach, and individual response to treatment. While some treatments can slow hair loss and promote regrowth, others may only provide temporary improvements.
Some natural remedies, such as essential oils, scalp massages, and dietary supplements, may support hair health and stimulate growth. However, their efficacy varies, and it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional before trying any natural remedies.
Contrary to popular belief, wearing hats or caps does not directly cause baldness. However, wearing tight or constrictive headgear for prolonged periods may contribute to hair breakage or traction alopecia, a loss caused by excessive pulling or tension on the hair shafts.
Chronic stress can contribute to hair loss by disrupting the normal hair growth cycle and triggering conditions like telogen effluvium. Managing stress through relaxation techniques, regular exercise, and adequate self-care may minimise its impact on hair health.
