A member asked:

Are there any possible way to repair damaged head skin by chemical straightening or is it permanent i chemically relaxed my hair once and got damaged?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not sure what you me: I am not sure what you mean but if you have hair loss it should grow back. If you have had bald patches for months then it may not grow back. See dermatologist for evaluation and to discuss treatment options.
