Survey finds almost half of black women have experienced hair loss

“We recently partnered with the Black Women’s Health Study at Boston University to explore prevalence of hair loss in African-American women, and of the [5,594] women who have completed the survey so far, 47% of them have hair loss,” Yolanda M. Lenzy, MD, FAAD […] Of those women, about 80% reported that they had never seen a physician for hair loss, which is representing a huge unmet need.”
