	There are three phases to hair growth: '''anagen''', '''catagen''', and '''telogen'''. '''Anagen''' begins at the root, where the hair gets its blood supply and nutrients it needs to grow, taking anywhere between 2 to 7 years in this stage. '''Catagen''' follows, transitioning the hair from a phase of growth to a phase of rest for approximately two weeks. In this stage, the hair detaches from the blood supply at the root. In '''telogen''', the hair sheds, detaching the shaft from the follicle within a period of 4 months.		There are three phases to hair growth: '''anagen''', '''catagen''', and '''telogen'''.

An individual hair follicle consists of a few different parts; it is primarily the '''root''' (dermal papilla), the '''shaft''' (or strand), and the '''sebaceous gland''' that we are concerned with.
