Types of hair fall
A gradual thinning of hair density from the top of the head is the most common type of hair loss that comes with age. Men may have a receding hairline while women may retain the hairline but may experience a widening of the par in the hair.
Circular smooth bald spots are another type of hair fall. The skin may become itchy or painful before hair falls out. When an infection occurs, patches of scales may spread across the scalp leading to hair loss.
