5.0 out of 5 stars Enormously Helpful, October 24, 2001
By A Customer
If you're a woman who is in a panic after recently discovering hair loss (thinning or baldness), this is the book for you. It gives a good, basic overview of medical and alternative therapies and hair care, grooming, and cosmetic issues. Also, it suggests how to talk to your doctor about hair loss and what questions, tests, and physical examinations your doctor should respond with. This books helps with the fear and frustration of female hair loss. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars huge help, April 12, 2006
By mktgmom (KS United States) - See all my reviews
I thought this book was really great, easy to follow and I loved that in different sections they would actually outline treatments recommended by various hair specialists around the country. The only drawback is that the book is now 6 years old and should probably be updated. We're ready for a second edition!

3.0 out of 5 stars Nothing new or revolutionary, June 3, 2008
There's nothing in this book that I didn't already know from visiting various dermatology and trichology websites. There isn't anything new or revolutionary. There are no secrets revealed. If you'd rather not look online, this might be a good fit. For this reason, it loses a star.

The second issue would be the topics discussed. The information on traction alopecia is very limited which surprised me because this is quite prevalent in women. I've seen more of that than other forms of thinning and balding that take up the bulk of this book. It loses a star for this.

Another issue would be the treatments. Nothing revolutionary. Any doctor or website could give you the same information. Unfortunately,there aren't really inexpensive, permanent solutions available. . If you're expecting to get this information, this just doesn't have it.
