Hair & scalp routine check

Check the boxes that apply. This is not a hair-loss diagnosis; it helps separate routine-care opportunities from signs that deserve professional evaluation.

Routine habits

I regularly use very tight hairstyles. I use frequent high heat or harsh chemical processing. My diet has been very restricted or I have had major recent weight loss. I often scratch or pick at an irritated scalp.

Changes worth discussing with a clinician

Sudden round or patchy bald areas. Scalp pain, redness, pus, heavy scaling, or scarring. Rapid or persistent shedding that is noticeably different from usual. Hair loss together with other unexplained symptoms.
