Hair is non-living thing made of protein filament. Hair grows within the dermis and goes throw epidermis. Hairs are found on body on human. Hairs also grow on other mammals. We call them fur if they are soft or wool if they are curly. It is also used as specification for different mammals. Even non mammals have outgrowths but these are not called hairs. This is one of the major differences between mammal and non mammals. Trees also have so called “hairs” but those are actually roots of that tree. Mammals have hairs, sometimes they are visible and sometimes not, like hairs on body of mouse, they are hardly visible. At some stage of life mammals start losing their hairs like at higher age human may loss their hair due to hail fall. Keratin is the main element in human hairs.

In actual, hair color is not of grey color. They are mixture of white and black. So they look grey. People who have red color hair, their hair color never changes to grey color.

Distribution rate –

Normal human hairs grow 0.4 mm daily. But in some case their growth is slow because of emotional stress or heredity problems. Human hairs don’t grow after death.

Texture –

1. Hair texture can be of different types such as wiry, medium, fine, and coarse. Hairs can also be straight, curly, wavy or kinky. 2. Hair texture can be affected by hair conditioners, crimpers, curlers and hairdresser. Our hair texture is determined by follicle. Hair texture also determines their dryness. Curly hairs remain dry than straight hairs.
