We believe YOU can be pull free, and we aim to help you get there!
Trichotillomania is an impulse control disorder causing urges to pull out hair, eyelashes, eyebrows or other body hairs. Many people feel unable to discuss their hair pulling and as a result, feel alone and isolated…even though it affects 1.5% of men and 3.4% of women worldwide.
Trichotillomania is not always obvious and is often hidden. A large percentage of the population still do not understand what trichotillomania is; the difficulties it presents or how best to help.
