The following research is based on 350 questionnaire surveys asking women in the city of Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do, regarding the characterization haracterization of hair scalp and hair loss, and family history. Of the 350 questionnaires, 332 were used for analysis data and yielded the following results: The research subjects were generally 20 to 50 years of age. The majority groups were as follows: blood type O at 36.1%, high school graduates at 43.3%, office/technical workers at 27.7%, and middle-class citizens at 57.2%. When asked about their lifestyle such as following a scheduled diet, proper nutrition, not smoking, and avoiding head gear, most responded in the "strongly agree" and "strongly disagree" categories. When asked if the subject enjoyed eating meat, avoided instant foods, consumed vegetables and natural products, drank over two liters of water daily, seldom consumed alcohol, exercised regularly, and lived a stress-free life, most were shown to be in the "neutral" category. In addition, the majority revealed that they had tried dieting multiple times. The majority groups were as follows: 69.3% shampooed daily, 46.4% used specialty shampoos, 65.7% dyed/bleached their hair regularly, 21.7% dyed their hair every three months. Furthermore, 63.9% had perms regularly and 25.6% had perms every three months. The relationship between the interest in scalp and hair loss with periodic shampooing, dying, bleaching, and perming was revealed to be the following: the majority shampooed daily regardless of concern for scalp and hair loss, subjects worried about their scalp and hair loss used specialty shampoos, and the majority dyed/bleached/permed their hair on a regular basis. Such results proved a significant statistical pattern(p<.05-.001). In addition, balding subjects shampooed regularly, used specialty shampoos, and 24.7% of subjects who dyed/bleached their hair were balding. Regarding the family background of subjects, the majority groups among the balding category are as follows: 63.3% had paternal grandparents who were not balding, 66.9% had maternal grandparents who were not balding, 53.6% had parents who were not balding, and 32.5% had a father who was balding. Regarding the relationship between the balding subjects and their family background, the following was observed: 12.0% had paternal grandfathers who were balding which is the highest percentage among all family members, 9.0% had maternal grandfathers who were balding, 10.8% had none balding, and 11.4% had at least one parent balding. Such results proved a significant statistical pattern(p<.001).
