Hair’s the Question

Abstract

Acronyms are generally useful for making communication more efficient in a single language, but they can be a challenge in a specialty as international as ours. This “Alphabet Soup” must be particularly frustrating to newcomers to figure out, not to mention our established membership, so I thought I would create a fun little quiz. Test your knowledge for some of these common (and rare!) hair acronyms so we can all be on “the same page” at our next ISHRS meeting! (HINT: WTF? = What the Follicle? ISHRS = International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery).
