    GlossaryHair Shaft Formation

    process where hair cells harden and emerge from follicles

    Hair Shaft Formation refers to the process by which hair is produced and grows from the hair follicle. This involves the differentiation and proliferation of cells in the hair bulb, which then keratinize (harden) to form the visible hair shaft. The process is regulated by various genetic and hormonal factors, ensuring the hair grows in a structured manner.
