Summary

This small study tests a bracelet called Keen2 that detects hair-pulling episodes in adults with trichotillomania. For 8 weeks, participants wear the device and log what they were doing or feeling when pulling occurred. The bracelet then sends personalized alerts to help them use healthier coping strategies. The goal is to see if the device is easy to use and reduces hair-pulling severity.
