Elise shares her journey with traction alopecia which started over 16 years ago with micro individual braids in High School & College. During that time, she continually installed micro braids on her hair without any breaks or rest in between. Whether professional or doing them herself, she would pull on her sensitive hairline to keep a look of fresh and neat braids. However, her hairline was thinning to the point of no return until her hairline disappeared.
