    Glossary Hair Germ Cells

    specialized cells initiating new hair follicle growth

    Hair germ cells are specialized cells found in the hair follicle that play a crucial role in the initiation of new hair growth. They are derived from stem cells and are responsible for the early stages of hair follicle development and regeneration, making them essential for maintaining healthy hair cycles.
