All the grey hairs in the scalp of 10 young females were pulled out on the same day and 3-5 months later the lengths of the regrowing grey hairs were measured. Presuming that the hair grows at a rate of 1- 1.5 cm per month the widely varying lengths of the regrowing hairs in each case indicated that all these hair follicles do not burst into the anagen phase immediately after evulsion.
