Is waving getting me hair loss/traction alopecia?
The first photo is from about 2 months ago. I started actively brushing and going for waves roughly a month and a half ago. The second photo is from today.
I've always had a naturally thinner hairline and have been using Minoxidil for over a year, which has helped. Recently though, I noticed my corners looking thinner. Hair loss does run in my family, but my hairline has been pretty stable for the past couple years. It just seems like since I started getting waves, it's gotten worse. I'm 18 for reference.
