Senior Member hairgirl08 Posted July 17, 2011 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 17, 2011 The root is the follicle. The bulb at the end of a hair is the follicle where the hair grows from if you pull that out then it's dead...period. If you pull out the hair and it doesn't take out the follicle (or root) than the hair can grow back, but you are also capable of damaging the follicle. Once again hairs do not get thicker from shaving or cutting it is a myth you can do your own research on this. If you plucked your eyebrows and they haven't thinned out then great, but know that you may thin them out. I don't believe there is much more to say on this thread. I'll just end this with saying that you should not pull out your hairs, for fun, flossing (I would recommend buying actual dental floss) or for any reason unless you want to take the chance of thinning your hair out. when i pluck my eyebrow hairs theres something bulby at the end of it but it keeps growing back and thicker too and i do have regular dental floss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairgirl08 Posted July 17, 2011 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 17, 2011 Carry floss in your purse. No reason to pull your hair out. i dont actually want to use hair as floss but i just want to know that my graft hair is strong enough like normal hair so that i could not because i want to pull my hair out or anything but i want to know that its strong like normal hair which i can do anything with idk if that makes sense lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairgirl08 Posted July 17, 2011 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 17, 2011 after my ht, i remember i pulled out a couple of normal hairs to test the strength of the ends of the roots because a few of my hair grafts were bent when i had slept on some of them and i wanted to see how much pressure i had put on them. and so i pulled out a normal hair and i found that even with light pressure i could easily bend the end of the hair. so i was less worried. since i thought before maybe i put too much pressure on my grafts if it caused the grafts to bend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member greatjob Posted July 18, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 18, 2011 hairgirl, The question you keep asking over and over has been answered many times in this thread, but it seems like you aren't looking for answers or not listening to them. It’s more like you are looking for someone tell you it’s ok to go ahead and pull out your hair. But I’ll try again. Your native hair and transplanted hair are the same at this point. If you pull out one of your native hairs or transplanted hairs it is a crap shoot whether or not it will grow back. Sometimes it will sometimes it won't. Pulling out your hair to look at the root is unnecessary and quite odd. If you want to see the hair root Google it or look in an anatomy book. Research on this site for eyebrow transplants and you will see that prolonged plucking most certainly result in hair loss. However at the end of the day it's your head and if you want to pull your hair out go right on ahead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairgirl08 Posted July 18, 2011 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 18, 2011 i think if your follicle is healthy enough (like normal hairs) then pulling out your hair isn't going to affect it and for eyebrows if plucking them makes them never grow back thats a good thing since thats why they are being plucked because they aren't wanted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member NEWHAIRPLEASE Posted July 18, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 18, 2011 This is getting stupid. Hairgirl, your question has been answered repeatedly. Most people would err to the side of caution. You wanna pull it and see if it's strong enough. Newhairplease!!
