Pula is a science-based support app for hair pulling, trichotillomania, and BFRBs. If you struggle with urges, pulling episodes, shame, or the feeling of starting over again, Pula gives you a structured program to better understand your patterns and build practical skills for change. The cycle of hair pulling: tension builds —> your hand starts searching —> pull —> relief —> regret. Pula help you break the cycle. We provide guided program with on-demand tools, rituals, and progress tracking.

Learn about science-based techniques to make progress in your healing journey. Module 3: Interrupt the Pattern Learn practical ways to notice urges earlier, create space before acting, and use replacement behaviors when pulling feels automatic. Module 4: Respond to Slips with Compassion Build healthier coping mechanisms, reduce shame, and learn how to recover from setbacks without giving up. Module 5: Change the Thoughts Behind the Habit Explore the beliefs, emotions, and inner stories that can keep the pulling cycle going, and practice responding in a new way. Module 6: Build Long-Term Control Strengthen the skills you’ve learned, create a personalized maintenance plan, and support lasting progress. It is important to complete each module in order and give yourself time to practice the tools between lessons.
