The hair bulb, also known as the hair bulb, is the lower part of the hair root, which is located in the deepest region of the hair follicle. It has a bulb-shaped structure and surrounds the hair bulb, a small, cone-shaped structure that contains blood vessels that supply the hair bulb with nutrients and oxygen. The hair bulb plays a crucial role in hair growth as it contains the cells that divide and form hair.
Hair bulb health is crucial for strong and healthy hair. Factors such as diet, stress, hormonal imbalances and genetics can influence the health of the hair bulb and therefore hair growth. A balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals supports the health of the hair bulb. Products and treatments that stimulate the scalp and promote blood circulation can also positively influence hair growth.
Disturbances in the function of the hair bulb can lead to hair loss and other hair problems. Androgenetic alopecia, also known as hereditary hair loss, is one of the most common causes of hair loss that affects the hair bulb by shortening the hair growth phase. Other conditions like Alopecia areata, one Autoimmune disease, which leads to circular hair loss, also directly affect the hair bulb.
Caring for the hair bulb and surrounding structures is essential to maintaining healthy hair growth and overall hair health.
