“Watching her lose all her hair at four years old, it changed everything.” Mia’s parents remembered the timing after a head lice treatment. Then her hair never seemed to grow back. This BaldCast intro teaser follows a family driving from Arizona to Dr. U Skin & Hair Clinic in Manhattan Beach, CA, after being offered options like steroid injections that felt too painful and risky for their four year old. Sanusi Umar, MD, built a gentle plan the family could do at home, with topical therapies, Gashee oral support, and adjustments based on response. This is one family’s experience, not medical advice. Results can vary. What would you ask first if your child suddenly started losing hair? Agree/Disagree: alopecia totalis in a child should not be dismissed as cosmetic.
