www.anahatabodycare.com HAIR 1.Hair is Non living flexible, thin, keratin, thread with great strength and elasticity. 2.There is no difference in the hair follicles between men and women. 3. Main function of the hair is to protect from the sun and provide sensory information of the environment. 4. For humans hair has an aesthetic function where hair influences the appearance, has a social psychological, sexual and emotional consequences, it affects the self esteem when there is hair loss or greying of hair.

www.anahatabodycare.com Hair structure HAIR Consist of a root that is embedded in the dermis in a hair follicle (hair bulb) this hair follicle has Sebaceous gland which produces sebum that quotes, the hair and the scalp. The hair bulb has a small muscle- Arrector pili. The hair bulb receives blood supply oxygen and nutrients to actively grow in the hair follicle. These cells are the only source of a new hair. Shaft is made up of dead cells composed mainly of keratin Presented by Archana Gogte

www.anahatabodycare.com Cuticle 02 01 03 It regulates water content of the hair fibre and is responsible for the lustre and texture of the hair. Shiny soft hair equals to healthy cuticle. Cuticles are keratinized cells that overlap in a roof tile formation, made up of 8 to 10 layers of cell. Dry brittle hair equals to damaged cuticles. Conditioner works at this part of the hair. The cuticles protect the underline cortex and acts as a barrier. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Cortex 01 02 03 Cortex is the major component of the hair shaft it contributes to the mechanical properties of the Hair fiber like strength, elasticity, and the curliness. Presence of Melanin in the cortex gives the colour to the hair as we age the amount of pigment that is melanin, reduces causing greying of hair. When you colour your hair or straighten or do permanent waving ( Perming ) or thermal styling the changes in the hair take place in the cortex. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Medula Medulla - medulla may be absent, or if present appears as a continuous or a discontinuous structure. Not much is known about function. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Hair growth cycle Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Anagen - regeneration 01 02 03 This phase can last for duration of 2 to 6 years or even 8 years. The scalp hair grows 1 mm every 3 days. New hair is produced in the hair follicle. 85 to 90% of hair are in anagen phase. longer the anagen phase the longer the hair grows. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Catagen - transition 01 02 03 Duration of this phase is 2 or 3 weeks in this phase. The cell division stops the follicular tube shrinks and detaches from the base of the follicle and moves upward. This phase marks the end of the growth of the hair and is a brief transition between growth and resting phase. 2-3 % of hair is in this phase. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Talogen - resting 01 02 03 Duration; this phase typically lasts 2 to 4 months. Only 2-8 % of our hair are in catagen or telogen phase. Shedding of 100- 150 hair in this phase in a day is normal. This is the final phase and last until the fully grown hair is shed or falls off. The exogen phase is essentially an extension or a part of the telogen stage of hair growth during this phase hair remains in place until the next anagen phase. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Chemical properties 01 02 Water: Constitutes up to 14% of hair weight, present internally and on the outer layer of the shaft. 03 Lipids: Comprise 1-9% of hair structure, sourced mainly from sebum, including fatty acids, esters, cholesterol. Keratin: Makes up 65- 95% of hair mass, providing structural strength. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Chemical properties 07 06 Water Absorption: Hair can absorb 12-18% of its weight in water; 75% is absorbed in the shaft within the first four minutes, affecting its porosity. 04 Trace Elements: About 1% of the hair includes elements like sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, etc. Hair Treatments: Wetting the hair is crucial for treatments like dyeing, enabling product penetration. 05 Alkaline ingredients open cuticles for colour molecules to enter the cortex. pH: Scalp pH is around 5, hair shaft pH is 3.67. Causing swelling of the hair shaft. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Physical properties 01 02 Hair Porosity: Hair shaft is porous, allowing penetration of water and certain cosmetic ingredients. 03 Friction Impact: Increased friction leads to tangling and rough hair texture. Hair Stretching: Hair can stretch up to 30% of its length when wet without damage. more than 30% it is damaged or it breaks. Mechanical damage can stem from any friction, such as from brushing, combing, or repeatedly wetting and drying the hair. Porosity can increase due to mechanical or chemical damage Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Physical properties 07 06 Elasticity: Hair's ability to stretch and return to its original shape. 04 Static Electricity: Dry hair can experience static causing fly aways; combing in cooler conditions reduces static. Strength: Hair's resistance to breakage and damage. Resilience: Hair's capacity to return to its original state after being bent or stretched. Flexibility: Hair's ability to bend without breaking. 05 Moisture Levels: Higher moisture content reduces static electricity. Presented by Archana Gogte
www.anahatabodycare.com Process of hair colour treatment In a hair coloring process, alkaline ingredients in products like hair dyes or bleaches raise the hair's pH level. This causes the hair cuticle (outer layer) to swell and lift, allowing the color molecules to penetrate the hair shaft. However, this process can also lead to damage as the lifted cuticle scales make the hair more vulnerable to moisture loss, breakage, and a rough texture. Over time, repeated exposure to alkaline products can weaken the hair structure, resulting in dryness, brittleness, and loss of elasticity. Presented by Archana Gogte
