Trichotillomania is a psychodermatological disorder characterized by an uncontrollable urge to pull one's own hair. It is often associated with depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder. We report five cases, a young male and four females, who presented with an increased desire to pluck out their hair, leading to large patches of baldness. Despite distinct forms of presentations and different comorbidities, the management more or less remained the same.
