Abstract
For matting of hair, multifactorial mechanisms are responsible. Thereby phy sical conditions, chemical agents and behavioural factors play the main rol es. It seems evident that hair matting is not a hair disease; consequently, cutting. off the affected hair and avoiding all possible trigger factors a re the therapy of choice. Copyright (C) 2000 S.
