Rating:  - Trichotillomania
I bought this book for my 10 year old daughter who had begun the hair pulling "habit". It was very sad to hear her say that she can't help herself and continues to pull her hair out. We noticed spots on her head that were very thin. We read this book together but she would read it on her own also. It was written where she understood it and it has helped tremendously. We have discovered trigger spots and use the ideas in the book to change the habit. She has done a tremendous job at learning ... Read More
Rating:  - Amazing!
My 10 year old daughter started pulling her hair 6 months ago. Her pediatrician told us she had trich. We tried EVERYTHING! Scolding, bribing, explaining, talking to her...EVERYTHING!

Rating: - Great for Kids
Gave this to a 10 year old girl who has trichotillomania. She loved the book. She was able to follow it and use it and it made her feel special!
Rating: - Easy for a child to understand
This book is written in a child-friendly way and was easy for my daughter to understand. It gives great alternatives to hair-pulling to relieve anxiety. Thanks for the other great reviews recommending this book!
Rating:  - Probably fine for an older child...
My daughter is 6 1/2 and we've been struggling with trich for about 4 months now. This book may be helpful for an older, very motivated child or adolescent. Though my daughter reads far above her grade level it did not hold her interest and the suggestions are too involved and complex for her to follow. I'll put it away for now in case we need it later, though I hope we won't!
