: I recommend consulting a dermatologist who can determine whether the hair loss is temporary or permanent, &amp; who will check for scalp pathology as well as order appropriate tests to check for thyroid disorder or other causes of hair loss. If no pathology found, see a skilled hair stylist for best hair care for your current hair condition.
