Hello,
I have been diagnosed with this type of Alopecia about a year ago. I have since stopped all chemical treatments including relaxers. I see a professional stylist for conditioning treatments every 2 wks yet it seems my troubled area has spread from the back to the top of my head. My scalp looks white and scaly after a fresh shampoo. Does anyone know if this condition will spread or how to stop it? I receive steroid injections at my derm; however, she can't seem to advise me on how to stop this condition from spreading all over my head. The area affected most is in the back of my head and my scalp seems tougher, more leathery and a different color, more beige. Has anyone experienced such symptoms or know how to avoid this condition from worsening. Its been 2 yrs since I've had a relaxer, I see my stylist and dermatologist regularly yet this condition still seems to be worsening. Help!!!
