Teacher warns of rare condition that triggers seizures in children - by simply brushing their hair

A TEACHER is warning of a rare condition that can trigger seizures in children - simply by brushing their hair.

This can cause blood pressure to drop and the heart rate to slow down, leading to a loss of consciousness. "I was maybe about five minutes in and she starts to gag a little and looks kind of pale. I asked her if she was going to get sick and she shook her head yes. Gracie has a blank stare and look on her face and is completely unresponsive and limp for about a minuteAlicia said she began screaming for her husband Dale, 36, as her little sister lay unconscious.

But a specialist told them Gracie had hair-grooming syncope, which doctors said they see up to five cases of the condition a year - mostly girls.
