    Glossary Hair Follicle Homeostasis

    balanced state of hair follicles cycling through growth and rest

    Hair follicle homeostasis refers to the balanced state of hair follicles, where they cycle through growth, rest, and shedding phases in a regulated manner. This balance is crucial for maintaining healthy hair density and preventing conditions like alopecia, where hair loss occurs due to disruptions in this cycle.
