We can only talk about cofactors, causative agents and life situations that like pieces of puzzle interact with each other, and together promote a chain of events ending with a named set of symptoms and health problems & with Folliculitis Decalvans.

What are the signs and symptoms?

• Any hairy region may be involved.
  
• It is usually confined to the scalp but can involve other sites including the beard, underarm and pubic hair, lower legs, thighs and arms.
  
• There are usually round or oval patches of hair loss in which there are pustules surrounding the hair follicles (perifollicular pustules).
  
• Characteristically, several or many hairs can be seen coming out of a single follicle, so the scalp looks "tufted" like a toothbrush.
  
• Eventually the hairs are shed as the follicle is completely destroyed and leaves behind a scar.
