Abstract The clinical findings in three new cases of acquired progressive kinking of the hair, all in females, are reported, and a review of all previously reported cases is presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Patients presenting with woolly hair must be examined completely to rule out cardiofaciocutaneous and Noonan syndrome. We present a 5-year-old with Type A woolly hair nevus. [ijpd.in]

• Swelling

  The exposed cortical fibers then separate and fray causing the distinctive nodular swelling of the hair shaft that look like two paintbrushes stuck against each other at the point of the nodular swelling. [hairtx.com]

  If your skin reacts to an outside agent, you may notice scaly red patches that itch occurring on or around the scalp, sometimes along with swelling and the appearance of vesicles. [blackhairmedicalexpert.com]

  However, in isolated spots along the length of a fiber swelling and/or fraying can be seen. These focal defects develop where there is an absence of cuticle. Continued Causes of trichorrhexis nodosa can be congenital or acquired. [webmd.com]

  Mild MD is a moderate form of the disease, in which cerebellar ataxia and moderate developmental delay predominate [ 4 ]. [bmcpediatr.biomedcentral.com]

• Fracture

  Oblique Fractures- Tapered Fracture Fractures of the hair that cause a pencil point appearance are due to inhibition of nucleic acid and protein synthesis and therefore mitosis during anagen. [hairtx.com]

  Clinically, these fracture points on the hair shaft may be confused with nits of head lice or hair casts. [euroformhealthcare.biz]

  But the rigid twisting of the hair fiber through 180 degrees creates stress, which leads to fractures in the cuticle and internal cortex layer of the hair shaft. [hairdiseases.com]

  When a weak hair shaft partially fractures and the cortical cells fragment, uneven spurs form at the fracture point. [dermnetnz.org]

  In this study, even very gentle bending of the hair, using a pair of tweezers, resulted in multiple fractures of the hair shafts. [drgreene.com]

• Alopecia

  The pathological features of the affected scalp were consistent with the diagnosis of the early stages of androgenetic alopecia. In all patients, APKH evolved into androgenetic alopecia during the follow-up period. [jamanetwork.com]

• Brittle Hair

  Seen under a microscope, the hair fibers have lost their cuticle covering over the nodes while the constrictions keep their cuticle. The brittle hair easily breaks once it is exposed above the skin and the fibers rarely grow very long as a result. [webmd.com]

  On light microscopy, the abnormal hairs are seen to be in the anagen phase and often appear twisted with longitudinal grooves and ruffled cuticles. Loose anagen ( hair ) syndrome results in short, brittle hair. [dermnetnz.org]

  Trichorrhexis invaginata is caused by brittle hairs and is characteristic of hair shaft change in Netherton syndrome. It appears as “ball-and-socket” under trichoscopy. [idoj.in]
