My friend is bald!! [seriously] HELP!?

Resolved Question

My friend is bald!! [seriously] HELP!?

my friend is of course a girl, and last year in the summer, she wore two ponytails and in the back of her head she had a tiny bald spot that i have not seen before, so it got worse. now a year later she only has a top layer of hair and the rest underneath is bald! she only wears it down cause if she wore it up u can see that she has no hair! so what is this? is this a disease?


***shes only 14. she has a bad eating diet [but shes not fat] her mom has cancer [maybe a trait?], her mom smokes alot. and she flatirons then curls her hair everyday!

Well diet has to do with hair, skin, etc.. So maybe if she ate healthier her hair would be in better condition. Cancer is not a trait. If one of your parents has it then that means you have a higher chance you get it. Cancer does not make you lose your hair. Chemotherapy makes you lose your hair. Her mom smoking has nothing to do with it. Secondhand smoke causes cancer and creates bad skin problems. But has nothing to do with hair. Now the flat ironing and curling her hair everyday is probably a contribution to the problem. It kills your hair. It makes it brittle and it falls out easily. Tell her she should take a long break from that. I suggest going to the doctor to find out what's wrong. Its possible she inherited a bald gene from either of her parents. So i think the doctor could help her.

Best of luck! :)

  • I had a friend who had a virus and it caused her to get a bald spot, i don't know what it was called though. but i'm assuming hers is caused by stress and bad eating habits, it's very possible for your hair to fall out in those circumstances.
  • the only true answer to your question is:

    Ask her.
