ABOUT HAIR
Hair is present on many different regions of the body. Each region, such as the head, pubic area, chest, armpit (under the arms), arms, legs, face, back, toes, hands and fingers has hairs with microscopical (so small as to be invisible or indistinct without the use of the microscope) characteristics attributable to that region.
The life cycle of hair can be divided into 3 phases:
Anagen Phase (Hair Growth)
Catagen Phase (Period between Growth and Resting)
Telogen Phase (Resting Phase)
As hairs undergo the anagen phase (when a hair grows) and telogen phase (when a hair is resting) the visible microscopic characteristics are sufficient to determine the phase of growth of the hair.
