    Glossary Macrofibrils

    large structural components within hair fibers, enhancing strength and elasticity

    Macrofibrils are large, structural components found within hair fibers, composed of smaller units called microfibrils. These macrofibrils contribute to the strength and elasticity of hair, playing a crucial role in its overall integrity and resilience.
