    GlossaryExclamation Mark Hairs

    short, broken hairs narrower at the base than the tip

    Exclamation mark hairs are short, broken hairs that are narrower at the base than at the tip, resembling an exclamation mark. They are often seen in conditions like alopecia areata, where the immune system attacks hair follicles, leading to hair loss. These hairs are a key diagnostic feature for dermatologists when identifying this type of hair loss.
