Different stages of hair growth

Hair grows from the follicle, underneath the skin. Each hair passes through 4 stages: Anagen, Catagen, Telogen and Exogen. Each hair is at a different stage of growth cycle.

• Anagen phase is a growing phase which lasts 2 to 7 years and determines length of our hair.

• Catagen phase is the transitional stage where hair follicle shrinks and detaches from the dermal papilla and this lasts about 10 days.

• Telogen phase is the resting phase which lasts around 3 months.

• Exogen phase is where the old hair sheds and a new hair continues to grow.
