3. HAIR & HAIR FOLLICLES
• Hair is composed primarily of proteins
(88%) These proteins are of a hard fibrous
type known as keratin. Keratin protein is
comprised of what we call "polypeptide
chains.”
4. Chemical Composition of Hair
• Hair made up of 20 amino acids.
• Body produces 11 of the 20 “the remainder must come from diet”.
• Proteins are sources of amino acids.
• A healthy diet is necessary for healthy hair.
5. Hair Color
• All natural hair colors are the result of two types of hair pigments.
• Both of these pigments are Melanin types, produced inside the hair follicle
and packed into granules found in the fibers.
• Eumelanin is the dominant pigment in brown hair, and black hair
while pheomelanin is dominant in red hair.
6. GLANDS
The two major glands associated with the skin are
the sebaceous glands and the sweat glands.
A- Sebaceous Glands
The sebaceous glands secrete an oily substance called
sebum, which lubricates the hair and skin.
B- SWEAT GLANDS
7. FOLLICLE:
The tube like pocket, in the skin or scalp that contains the hair root.
HAIR BULB:
The lowest area or part of a hair strand. It is the thickened, club-shaped
structure that forms the lower part of the hair root. The lower part of the
bulb fits over and covers the dermal papilla.
8. ARRECTOR PILI:
A minute, involuntary muscle fiber in the skin inserted in the base of the hair
follicle. Fear or cold causes it to contract, which makes the hair stand up
straight, resulting in goose bumps.
SEBACEOUS GLANDS:
Oil glands of the skin, connected to the hair follicles. The sebaceous glands
secrete an oily substance called sebum, which lubricates the hair and skin.
9. NORMAL SCALP HAIR GROWTH
PATTERNS
Average total number of scalp hairs is 100,000 hairs.
Average rate of growth is 0.35 mm/day.
Hair grows faster in summer than in winter.
Average daily loss is 25-100 hairs /day.
Fastest growth is between 15-30 years.
Female hair grows faster than male hair.
10. Types of Hair
• Vellus (lanugo) hair: short, fine, downy,
unpigmented hair on body.
• Terminal hair: long, thick, pigmented
hair found on scalp, legs, arms, and
body.
11. SHAPE
The shape of the hair shaft determines whether hair is straight or curly.
• If the shaft is round, the hair is straight.
• If the shaft is oval, the hair is wavy.
• If the shaft is flat, the hair is curly or kinky.
13. ANATOMY OF HAIR
I- THE SHAFT
A- The medulla
B- The cortex
C- The cuticle
II- THE ROOT
A- The hair bulb
B- The erector pili muscles
14. HAIR SHAFT
There are 3 main layers of the hair shaft.
CUTICLE: The outermost layer of the hair. It consists of a single layer of
transparent, scale like cells that overlap like shingles on a roof. A healthy,
compact cuticle layer is the hair’s primary defense against damage.
CORTEX: The middle layer of hair; a fibrous protein core formed by elongated cells
containing melanin pigment. About 90 percent of hair weight comes from the
cortex. Protein structures located in the cortex provide hair elasticity.
Changes resulting from chemical services occur in the cortex.
15. HAIR SHAFT
There are three main layers of the hair shaft.
MEDULLA: Innermost layer; also referred to as the pith(Core)
of the hair.
It is composed of round cells. Very fine and naturally blonde
hair may not even have a medulla.
Thick, coarse hair and beard hair always contain a medulla.
Cortex
Cuticle
17. HAIR LIFE CYCLE
• There are 3 phases in the hair life cycle.
• Hair shedding usually occurs in the transition phase, but can also occur in
the resting phase.
18. • Active-Growth Phase (ANAGEN):
Active growth period is 2-5 years before replacement.
• Transition Phase (CATAGEN):
lasts one or two weeks & hair follicle shrinks about 80%.
• Resting Phase (TELOGEN):
After five or six weeks, dermal papilla reconnects to base
of hair follicle and bloodstream. The hair re-enters the
active-growth phase and a new hair begins to from.

VARKOPET SERUM
85. VARKOPET SERUM
SILICON OIL
Heat protection.
The moisture content of hair is crucial to maintaining its healthy
appearance and feel. Processes such as blow drying and curling with hot
irons can rapidly reduce hair moisture content below its normal level and
can lead to damage. Hair dryers and other heated appliances first soften
the keratin of the hair. If the appliances are too hot, they can actually
cause the water in the hair to boil, forming minute bubbles of steam inside
the softened hair shaft, weakening the fiber and potentially leading to
total fracture. In general, silicones have good thermodynamic properties to
help protect hair and maintain its moisture.
It could play in reducing the loss of water from hair fibers
86. VARKOPET SERUM
Hair strengthening.
With their inherent conditioning ability, many silicones address the
physical and environmental causes of hair damage.
They can be especially useful in ethnic hair care products and products
designed for weakened or damaged hair. In these cases, the ability of
silicones to impart a perception of moisturization and control frizzy hair
contribute to the overall conditioning effect.
It may protect the hair cuticle during elongation, and it may assist in sealing
the hair cuticle, helping prevent moisture penetration into and out of the
hair cortex to maintain an optimal moisture level for hair strength.
87. VARKOPET SERUM
All tresses treated with silicones allowed three times more heat to be
absorbed. The silicone film on hair makes it more difficult for water to
evaporate, and this retention of moisture translates to better heat
protection
