Don't worry ,we can do varieties of interventions including pharmacotherapy and some training as well .your daughter needs to find out the triggering situation 1st,then we can train her to avoid  hair pulling at that moment along with that some medication will do wonder.

See The thing is trichotillomania is triggered with anxiety and stress. So maybe it is related to her studies or curriculum. You can treat it through psychiatric medication, but also the most important thing is therapy because she needs to have a conversation. Regarding what is troubling her, what is on her mind so that we can solve it, we can help her understand that there are better ways to deal and generalize her negative energy and and how to make her thoughts positive. So you can reach out to me for therapy and for medicine you can consult a psychiatrist. All the best. I'll be happy to help the little child.
