Anyone experiencing hair loss and/or skin irritation?

Hololens came into my life, in June... after heavy usage, my once thick and full head of hair is now thinning at a rapid rate. Shortly after my hair began to noticably dissappear the skin arounexperiencing d my eyes began experiencing irritation. I was in constant denial because of my love for this device. I took a break and the skin around my eyes started to heal but I'm still Losing hair and fast. After a short brincrease eak and proper cleansing on the device i decided to use it again.... sure enough the skin around my eyes broke out into a disgusting rash along with what seems like an increased rate of hair loss. I have no family history of baldness our cancers. I live a pretty sheltered - fancy - healthy life .... has anyone else noticed similar symptoms? I'll be seeing a dermatologist soon, I hope it's not because of the hololens....

    I have not seen any such reactions. It could be that you're allergic to some material on the device... or you're allergic to something you got on the device and you keep re-exposing yourself, the headband is somewhat absorbent so this is possible and not easily cleaned out. Whatever it may be, I wish you luck figuring it out, doesn't sound fun.
