    Glossary Anagen Hair Follicles

    phase where hair actively grows

    Anagen hair follicles, also known as growing hair follicles or active hair follicles, are in the phase of the hair growth cycle where the hair is actively growing. This phase can last anywhere from 2 to 7 years, during which the hair shaft is continuously produced by the follicle, resulting in longer hair. This is the most prolonged phase of the hair cycle and is crucial for determining the length of the hair.
