B - Possible Reported application site hair loss likely reflects local dermal sensitivity to the product. Itchy skin is not expected to be generalized but rather be linked to the application site. However, may be a consequence of the uncomfortable feeling caused by the applied product. Considering consistent time to onset, a product connection is deemed to be possible.
