    biological processes promoting hair fiber development and elongation

    Hair Growth Activity refers to the biological processes and mechanisms that promote the development and elongation of hair fibers from hair follicles. This includes the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle, where cells in the hair bulb divide rapidly, leading to hair shaft formation and elongation. Factors influencing hair growth activity can include genetics, hormones, nutrition, and overall health.
