The prospect, which is quite real, is alarming that is present constantly and accumulates, pouring out with a real phobic disorder.
The cause of peladophobia may be some unpleasant and traumatic events that happened in childhood. For example, the child has become a victim of violence, ill-treatment from a bald person. The reason can be wounded in the experience of another kind: the child for some reason was touched by challenge, which caused a squall of ridicule, bullying from the peers, which firmly tied in the subconscious of two phenomena - the feeling of misfortune and law.
