You need to see a good dermatologist. You may have a variety of conditions that are dangerous and will cause you to eventually lose hair. The internet is not a place to gamble the future of your hair and your health.

I am a 45 year old African American female and I too have been experiencing hair loss for the past 2 years. My symptoms are bumps in my scalp that itch and sometimes are painful to the touch and my scalp is often tender and very sensitive to heat. I have been to a couple of dermatologists and neither have been able to diagnose or provide a treatment that had any noticeable positive results. Can anyone recommend a good dermotologist in the Detroit Metro area that specializes in this condition in African American females? Your recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
