Hair Growth and Loss

A typical hair consists of the shaft, which is the part you can see, and the root, which resides in a hair follicle. The hair shaft is non-living tissue, and only matrix cells in a region at the root, surrounding what is known as the dermal papilla, grow and divide, gradually pushing the elongating hair outward.

The numbers of hairs on a person’s head varies by hair type and race, but a typical range is 100,000 – 150,000 hairs on the scalp. Each day, an average of 50-100 hairs fall out of hair follicles as part of the normal growth process. Hair that is lost is continually replaced by new hair, which grows in a cycle. When the hair growth cycle is disrupted, and more hairs are lost than regenerate, thinning hair and possible baldness result.
