About AHLA
The American Hair Loss Association is the only national 501(c)(3) nonprofit consumer organization dedicated to educating the public, healthcare professionals, mainstream media and legislators about the emotionally devastating disease of hair loss. For more than 25 years, the AHLA has been a leading independent voice for credible hair loss education and consumer advocacy in the United States, while becoming a trusted resource for people seeking reliable hair loss information around the world.
Hair loss is too often dismissed as a cosmetic concern. The AHLA recognizes it as a serious, life altering disorder that can profoundly affect self image, confidence and emotional well being. Our mission is not only to support meaningful research and education, but to give consumers the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their treatment, their care and the professionals they choose to trust.
That commitment to informed consumerism is especially important in a field crowded with questionable claims, unproven treatments and aggressive marketing. Consumer advocacy and protection remain central to the AHLA mission, helping people distinguish credible information and responsible care from misinformation and exploitation.
Our Objectives
The American Hair Loss Association provides trusted, independent information and educational resources for consumers, dermatologists and other healthcare professionals on the causes, diagnosis and treatment of hair loss.
Through various activities, the AHLA aims to:
- Advance public and professional understanding of hair loss, its medical and emotional impact, and the stigma that can accompany it.
- Encourage meaningful scientific research into the causes, prevention and treatment of hair loss.
- Empower consumers with the knowledge they need to evaluate treatments, products and providers, make informed decisions about their care and avoid misleading claims and questionable practices.
- Promote higher standards of ethics, transparency and accountability throughout the field of hair loss treatment and hair restoration.
For more than 25 years, the American Hair Loss Association has been a leading independent authority on hair loss and a longstanding advocate for consumers, providing trusted information for people affected by hair loss and the healthcare professionals who care for them in the United States and around the world.
