rare hair disorder with alternating light and dark bands

Pili Annulati, also known as "ringed hair," is a rare hair shaft disorder characterized by alternating light and dark bands along the hair, giving it a striped appearance. This condition is usually benign and does not affect hair growth or overall health, but it can be identified through microscopic examination of the hair shaft.
