Abstract: Alopecia can be divided into non-cicatricial alopecia and cicatricial alopecia. In addition to invading the lungs, COVID-19 can also affect the skin, resulting in an increase in the incidence rate of alopecia or the progress of the original alopecia. The interaction between COVID-19 infection and non-cicatricial alopecia is reviewed inthis paper.
