    Glossary Hair Dystrophy

    abnormal development or degeneration of hair follicles

    Hair dystrophy refers to the abnormal development or degeneration of hair follicles, leading to weakened, brittle, or irregular hair growth. This condition can result from various factors, including genetic disorders, nutritional deficiencies, or underlying medical conditions, and is often identified through microscopic examination of the hair shaft and follicle.
