I'm experiencing sudden hair thinning at my right temple, and I'm worried it might be traction alopecia. It's pretty unusual because I'm not even in my 20s yet, and it's really affecting my confidence. Could you offer some insight into what might be going on here?

I've noticed that my forehead is a lot darker than the rest of my face, and it's been like this for almost two years now. I initially thought it was just a tan and have tried all sorts of things, like getting regular facials and home remedies, but nothing seems to be working. Any advice on how I can fix this?
