    Glossary Hair Shaft Abnormality

    irregular or defective hair structure causing fragility and breakage

    Hair Shaft Abnormality, also known as Hair Shaft Disorder, refers to a range of conditions where the structure of the hair shaft is irregular or defective. These abnormalities can lead to hair that is fragile, prone to breakage, or has an unusual appearance, such as twisting, kinking, or splitting. Causes can be genetic, environmental, or due to underlying health issues, and diagnosis often involves microscopic examination of the hair.
