Traumatic hair loss may or may not grow back. It may take several months even up to one year to find out.
This is tough to answer without pictures. It will most likely grow back in several months. In the mean time, I suggest seeing a hair loss expert to evaluate and go over your condition and provide you information about any necessary treatment options. There are great non-invasive, alternatvie options like PRP/progesterone which can improve hair growth to this area. Best, Dr. Emer

If you had a weave for a while and then took if off and the glue pulled off hair - that's a whole different story (as microinflammation may have been accumulating for a longer time). As you can see there are a few factors here that we must consider.All in all, please see a hair specialist.
