    GlossaryAnagen Entry

    phase when hair follicles start active growth

    Anagen Entry refers to the phase in the hair growth cycle when hair follicles transition from a resting state (telogen) to an active growth phase (anagen). During this period, cells in the hair bulb rapidly divide, leading to the formation of new hair shafts. This phase is crucial for hair regeneration and overall hair health.
