See July 2010 research on this site. I think there were follow-ups in November.

Quote : Researchers investigated the pigment cell substances because there were several hints that these cells were involved. For instance, white hairs tend to fall out less often in many patients, suggesting that hair follicles lacking in pigment-making cells might not be as vulnerable to the attack.

From my understanding of the above quote - the more gray or white my hair is ... the less likely it will be subject to shedding ??

Hmmmm...

Where did you find the 2010 Research for the same findings? could not find it online. Also I heard that psoriasis treatments are used for alopecia areata in some places(israel and some parts of Europe) do not know the success rate for it.

Thanks
