HAIR BIOLOGY
The Biology of the Hair
What is hair
 Hair is a simple structure that is made up
of Protein filaments called Keratin.
 Hair acts as a barrier to foreign particles.
 It's an important part of appearance and
creates gender identity.
 Hair is the only body structure that can
completely renew itself without scarring.

 Hair is made up of two separate structures
 The hair follicle: which exists below the
skin.
 The hair shaft: which is the hair that we
see.
HAIR FOLLICLE: the living part of the
hair
 contains the germinal matrix, which is where cells produce new hairs.
 Contains the bulb, which is the stocking-like structure that surrounds the
papilla and germinal matrix. It's fed by capillaries.
 The follicle is surrounded by an inner and outer sheath that protects and
molds the growing hair shaft.
 The inner sheath follows the hair shaft and ends just before the opening of
the sebaceous gland.
 The outer sheath continues all the way up to the sebaceous gland
HAIR FOLLICLES
HAIR SHAFT: the dead hair we can
actually see.
 The innermost layer: This is called the medulla. Depending on the type of
hair, the medulla isn't always present.
 The middle layer: This is called the cortex, which makes up the majority of
the hair shaft. Both the medulla and the cortex contain pigmenting cells that
are responsible for giving hair color.
 The outermost layer: This is called the cuticle, which is formed by tightly
packed scales in an overlapping structure that resemble roof shingles. Many
hair conditioning products are formulated to even out the cuticle by
smoothing out its structure.
The growth cycle
 The anagen phase is the active or growth phase of the
hair. Most hair is constantly growing and spends three to
four years in this stage
 The catagen phase is a transitional stage, and 3% of all
hairs are in this phase at any given time. It lasts for two
to three weeks
 The telogen phase is the resting phase, which lasts for
about three months and accounts for 10% to 15% of all hair
