Violent Beating Left Me Missing a Chunk of Hair!

I was the victim of a gang beating last week and during the struggle a fist full of hair was ripped from the top of my head! I have thin but very long hair and I’m 30 years old with no history of family baldness but the patch ripped off me is quite bald and very damaged shorter hairs surround the area as well,will my hair regrow on its own? and is there anything that I can do to help the process along any faster? any advice please!!!

Trauma such as what you describe is unfortunate. Most of the hair should grow back, but it will take time (possibly up to a year), though much of the regrowth should occur in the first 6 months. Unfortunately, there is no process to speed this along.
