We discussed in a previous module how the body grows by cell division and that all cells trace their origin back to the single ovum cell in the mother's womb. Gradually, as the cells divide and different cells take on different characteristics (differentiation), the foetus starts to take shape. So at which stage are the hair follicles formed? Why is it important to know?
In this module we will look at this fascinating subject and discuss some of the implications for hair removal and hair regrowth.
