What can be done to cure trichotillomania?

Answer by  lakennichol (18)

There is currently no cure for trichotillomania. However there are a number of treatments options. Begin with education about the disorder and then move onto treatments which include Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, medications, alternative therapies (such as yoga, meditation, hypnosis etc), and support groups. Make sure your roommate knows you are there for them, moral support will help!

Well since trichotillomania is compulsive hair pulling I would suggest super gluing a hat on your roomate's head. Or you could try the logical route and see if your roomate would see someone about this, particularly a therapist.
