How Do Hair Grows. by nuhuanku(m): 4:43pm On Jul 31, 2017 |
[color=#000099][/color] How hair grows
Hair grows out of little pockets in your skin,
called follicles. Here's how it happens:
1. Your hair begins
growing from a
root in the
bottom of the
follicle. The root is
made up of cells of
protein.
2. Blood from the
blood vessels in
your scalp feeds
the root, which
creates more cells
and makes the hair
grow.
3. The hair gets
pushed up through
the skin as it
grows, passing an
oil gland along the
way. The oil gland
adds oil to the
hair and keeps it
shiny and soft. It
can make it
greasy, too.
That's why you
need to wash your
hair.
4. The hair dies by
the time it is long
enough to poke out
through the skin.
Yes, hair is dead.
That's why it
doesn't hurt to
get a haircut.

Hair on the rest of your body goes through
this same process, but the whole cycle only
lasts for a month or so. That's why body hair
does not grow very long in length like the hair
on your head does.
Here are some facts about follicles and your
hair:
You are born with all of the follicles you
will ever have — about 5 million.
You have about 100,000 follicles on your
scalp, which is the skin on your head.
Hair grows very fast and male hair grows
faster than female hair . The only part of
your body that grows faster is bone
marrow, the soft stuff inside your bones.
The hair on your head grows about 6
inches a year. So, even though it's one of
the fastest-growing things on your body,
it takes a while to grow it really long.
You lose about 50 to 100 hairs a day .
That's because the follicles don't all grow
hair at the same time. Each scalp follicle
grows hair for a few years and then takes
a break. When a follicle is on a break, the
hair in the follicle falls out. Because the
follicles take breaks at different times
and the other hairs keep growing, you
probably don't notice when you lose hairs.
Some follicles stop growing hair as you
get older . This happens more in some
people than in others. That's why some
people get thinner hair when they get
old
