    Glossary Hair Epithelial Cells

    specialized cells forming the outer layer of hair follicles

    Hair epithelial cells are specialized cells that make up the outer layer of the hair follicle, which is the structure in the skin that produces hair. These cells play a crucial role in the growth and regeneration of hair by dividing and differentiating to form the various parts of the hair shaft and the surrounding follicle.
