    Glossary Secondary Hair Germ

    cluster of cells initiating new hair growth cycle

    The Secondary Hair Germ is a cluster of cells located at the base of the hair follicle, which plays a crucial role in the regeneration of hair during the hair growth cycle. These cells become active during the transition from the resting phase (telogen) to the growth phase (anagen), helping to initiate the formation of a new hair shaft.
