Hair loss affects many Black women throughout their lives, whether due to traction alopecia, hormonal changes, genetics, or chronic styling damage. The emotional toll can be deeply felt: decreased self-esteem, anxiety, shame, and even identity loss. Fortunately, a new wave of treatments—PRP (platelet-rich plasma), micro-fat (or micofat/adipose), and minoxidil (both topical and oral)—provides promising options tailored to textured hair. But with conflicting reports, cost considerations, and potential side effects, Black women are demanding clarity: Which hair regrowth procedure truly delivers?

Dozens of clinical trials—and systematic reviews—have documented measurable increases in hair density and thickness, especially in androgenetic alopecia (AGA).
