GlossaryHair Growth Cycle

process where hair follicles undergo growth, transition, and rest phases

The Hair Growth Cycle, also known as Hair Follicle Cycling, consists of three main phases: anagen (growth phase), catagen (transitional phase), and telogen (resting phase). During the anagen phase, hair actively grows from the follicle, which can last several years. The catagen phase is a short period where growth stops, and the hair follicle shrinks. Finally, in the telogen phase, the hair rests before eventually falling out, making way for new hair to begin the cycle again. Understanding these phases is crucial for diagnosing and treating hair loss conditions like alopecia.

community Scalp Skin Barrier Health and Hair Follicle Cycling: A Potential Overlooked Connection

in Technology 2 months ago

The conversation discusses the importance of scalp skin barrier health in hair follicle cycling, suggesting treatments like ceramides or niacinamide to support hair growth. It also mentions the use of finasteride for hair loss.

community PP405 Won't Work Long Term: Hair Follicle Damage Due to Abuse of the ISR System

in Research/Science 66 upvotes 9 months ago

PP405 may damage hair follicles if used long-term, suggesting cycling might be necessary. Combining it with finasteride could help maintain hair growth.

community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.

in Research/Science 48 upvotes 5 months ago

Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.

community Addressing queries in my DMs about my hair growth and my current state

in Progress Pictures 130 upvotes 3 months ago

The conversation discusses hair regrowth treatments, specifically using oral minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride. The user experienced hair growth after switching to oral medications and adjusting dosages, with no significant side effects reported.

community Oral Biotin and Topical Minoxidil have a synergy effect in increasing hair growth, the study was only done in healthy subjects and it was only 14 days but it does prove that biotin can play a significant role as an adjunct treatment.

in Research/Science 171 upvotes 1 year ago

Oral biotin combined with topical minoxidil may increase hair growth rate, though the study was limited to healthy subjects and did not measure hair density. Some users report personal benefits from biotin, such as faster nail growth and healthier hair, but concerns about acne and study quality were also mentioned.
