    Glossary Huxley layer

    inner root sheath layer supporting hair shaft growth

    The Huxley layer is a part of the inner root sheath of a hair follicle, situated between the Henle layer and the cuticle of the inner root sheath. It consists of several layers of flattened, nucleated cells that play a role in supporting and shaping the growing hair shaft.
