Treating the Problem a Bald Spot

1. Conceal it or flaunt it

Most types of hair loss will reverse on their own once the underlying condition — such as infection, stress, medication, or hair-pulling — passes. In the meantime, the best alternative may be to conceal the bald spot(s) with styling or hair volume. Or, you can also just embrace the baldness and perhaps even accentuate it.
