ABSTRACT
The aim of the present article is to review the hair’s anatomy,
histology, embriology, growth, and development. Also, we discuss
molecular biology basic aspects and the molecular mechanisms
regulating the hair’s morphogenesis and development.
Currently, it is necessary to know about the hair’s anatomy and
molecular structure in order to design new treatments for alopecias.
Hair loss affects most of the world population.
