Esta condição começa como um foco de alopecia cicatricial na região do vértex do couro cabeludo em mulheres negras. Em seguida, dissemina-se gradualmente para fora em um padrão centrífugo, mas permanece como uma única placa. A destruição do folículo piloso é grave e resulta em fibrose extensa, frequentemente com inflamação granulomatosa ao redor de fragmentos de caelo residual. A maioria dos pacientes são mulheres negras de meia-idade que alisam quimicamente o cabelo. A alopécia é lentamente progressiva e a progressão simétrica para a região anterior segue um padrão semelhante ao padrão feminino de queda de cabelo. Postula-se uma possível relação com procedimentos de alisamento capilar, mas foi não comprovada de forma conclusiva.
