Abstract

The word hair usually refers to two distinct structures, hair follicle, the part locates in the dermis, and the hair shaft, which is the hard filamentous part that extends above the skin surface and varies with ethnicity in diameter and format. The hair shaft can be modified with different cosmetic procedures and also can be damage during the process. This chapter will approach hair anatomy, structure of hair shaft, hair damage, hair analyses, and different ways to process hair changes.
