A short resting period after a long development period
During the resting period, the hair is tied to the follicle but it does not grow.
At the end of the resting period, the hair falls and from the same follicle the new hair starts to grow.
The length of the Growth-Resting Cycle depends on the genetic code of the individual.
Hair production is reduced by aging, the resting period starts to be longer.
The life cycle of the hair contains three phases:
Anagene (growth), Catagen (interlude) ve Telogene (falling, resting)
