    rare genetic condition causing beaded, fragile hair shafts

    Monilethrix is a rare genetic condition that affects the hair shaft, causing it to be beaded or segmented, which makes the hair fragile and prone to breakage. This results in sparse, short, and brittle hair. The condition is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern and can be diagnosed through microscopic examination of the hair.
