INTRODUCTION

Hair loss, baldness, scaling, itching and excessive oiliness are problems from which many people suffer and about which they would like knowledgeable, professional advice and, where possible, treatment.

An educational program was therefore developed at the University of Southern California to expand the knowledge of students into the area of trichology so that the legally licensed and qualified professionals will be able to help clients with scalp and hair problems in a way that has not always been possible.

Successful completion of the program will enable the interested professional to become a "Certified Trichologist" of the International Association of Trichologists, which is the professional body responsible for handling the trichology program. 

The administrator of the course and Director of I.A.T. is David Salinger. Mr Salinger is a member and Director of the International Association of Trichologists and a member and vice-president of the Institute of Trichologists (U.K.).
