Hair is actively produced at the ‘bulb’ of the follicle that surrounds the root or dermal papilla.
The hair bulb has two distinct regions divided by the Auber line. Cell differentiation occurs below the Auber line where immature cells germinate at the follicle matrix. The root orchestrates the process of hair growth through complex mixtures of growth factors and proteins. At the center of the follicle matrix root stem cells undergo mitosis, move up, enlarge, grow vertically, and become apart of the hair shaft.
Root Bare formulas reach deep below the surface supplying the roots thus signaling to the follicle to do what it does best
Stimulates the Follicle Directly
Hair shaft is a protein filament that grows from the follicle
-The cuticle layer is a cell layer that surrounds the hair shaft and helps secure the growing hair shaft to the hair follicle, it ‘roots’ the growing hair. The cells the comprise the cuticle begin overlapping at the root and give hair it shape and untangled appearance.
Scalp is specialized skin that is responsible for hair growth. Composed of cell membranes, fibrous and connective tissues.
Follicle is a tube-like structure at the top layers of the dermis that envelops the root and hair strand
-The living portion of the hair is the follicle containing the inner and outer root sheath below the epidermis. This tiny structure of nerve fibers, capillaries, stroma and mesenchyme supplies nutrients, transmits signals and regenerates.
Root is specialized skin cell that is responsible for hair growth
-The outer root sheath supplies the stem cells. Also known as the bulge between the pili muscle and the sebaceous gland ductile opening
-the inner root sheath consists of 3 layers the Henle layer, Huxley layer, and the cuticle layer.
