Abstract

The prevalence of hair loss has increased during COVID‐19. In this study, we review the current literature on incidence and characteristics of various types of COVID‐19‐related and COVID‐19‐vaccine‐ related hair loss including telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, friction alopecia and anagen effluvium. Regarding most of them, the more severe the infection, the more profound and prolonged the course of alopecia. However, the most important issue is reassuring the patients of the non‐serious nature of this complication, since psychological support is the most important factor in the earlier resolution of the condition.
