    hair growth phase is unusually short, preventing long hair

    Short Anagen Syndrome (SAS) is a condition where the hair growth phase (anagen phase) is unusually short, leading to hair that doesn't grow long and often appears thin or sparse. This results in hair that frequently sheds and doesn't reach its full length potential, making it difficult for individuals to grow long hair.
