Question:
I am appealing to all Rx's out there, my mother has come down with a condition where her hair has disappeared
She said that she experienced flaking and itching, she has used the same hair products for years. We are African American' she has had a curly permanent for over fifteen years, without change. She has gone to the dermatologist for an allergy test and she is not allergic to the norm, If anyone has an answer out there or can lead us on the right track , please tell me. I feel so sorry for her. A woman hair is her pride and glory.......Thanx ..........
