    About This Study

    The purpose of this study is to learn more about what might cause a kind of hair loss called Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia. We are looking for Black or African American women who have this condition. If you join the study, you will be asked to answer a short survey, have pictures taken of your scalp, and give a saliva sample so we can look at your DNA. We are also looking for family members-whether they have hair loss or not-to take part. This is not a treatment study.
