Hair consists of a shaft and a root. The shaft is the visible portion of the scalp surface. The root or bulb is the follicle and sits at an oblique angle in the scalp. Hair grows at different angles, depending on the site of the scalp, and the proper angulation of the hair is key in hair restoration surgery to effect a natural result.“Follicle” literally means a “Hair Root”.
