    early development where skin cells start forming hair structures

    Hair follicle initiation refers to the early developmental process where cells in the skin begin to form the structures that will become hair follicles. This involves a complex interaction between various signaling pathways and cellular activities, leading to the formation of a hair germ, which eventually matures into a fully functional hair follicle. This process is crucial for hair growth and regeneration.
