Alopecia is indeed a condition that some people have to experience in this whole wide world. Other than that, many people call it spot baldness. Many do not know this, but it could happen in some or even all areas of the body.

This condition also happened to various famous celebrities. One of them is Jada Pinkett Smith. People can see through her recent appearances. She has no hair at all. She did not intentionally do not want to have any hair on her head. That is specifically because of her condition. It is so important for people to really know about it.

Two Different Types Of Alopecia

The most common hair problems to occur are androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata. Androgenetic alopecia is hair loss. That can be experienced by both men and women. Alopecia areata is a condition that involves autoimmune problems. Related to the issue of hair baldness. There is a slight difference between both conditions to differentiate.

Individuals who experience this kind of problem may complain. Majorly about some changes. Their scalp could suddenly become red, scaly, or even dry. In some other situations, it may also cause itching and pain for them.

There is one most important thing for people that have this condition to do. That is to protect the hair and scalp from excessive sunlight exposure by wearing sunscreen, a hat, or a wig. So important for them to know the protection step.

All in all, the knowledge of alopecia is so simple to understand. Knowing it would be beneficial for a lot of people. At least, people would stop making stupid jokes about it. Ignorance is definitely not bliss in this.
