 There are three phases of hair growth:
Anagen Phase — the initial growth phase of hair, usually lasting about 1000 days. It regularly occurs in most of the hairs on the human head. Approximately 85% of the hair on your head grows one inch per month. During this phase, hair is very sensitive to nutrition and environment.
Catagen Phase — Is a period of arrest which causes the follicle (root) to form a club hair and fall out. Most hair re-grows because the follicle remains. As new hair grows from the root inside the follicle, it pushes out the old hair.
Telogen Phase — Is a resting mode 3 to 4 months prior to the anagen phase starting all over again. This phase usually lasts 100 days. Approximately 10 to 15% of all hairs are in this state of rest at any given time. |
