I called my dermatologist. She's out, but I talked to her nurse.

Her granddaughter was in a helmet. She said " they are the best

thing in the world. " She's going to talk to my derma when she

returns. I'll post that info.

The nurse said that her granddaughter didn't know she had hair from

wearing the helmet. When it came off, she pulled out her hair.

That made me something to think about. Show your child that they

have hair (let them feel and see it), so he/she doesn't pull it out.
