How does hair grow through skin?

After a hair transplant, in the first month patients could expect their new grafted hair to shed and fall out. However, is there ever a risk of the skin below those hairs closing up? Is hair that stays dormant for a while, in this case the shedded hair, able to always grow through skin?

Yes, hair that is dormant will always go through the skin. There's no such thing as hair clogs. A lot of old wives tales' talk about clogging hair follicles or not allowing hair follicles to breath. It's all nonsense.

He means hair bangs. I don't know though, if you don't wash your hair much, or sweat alot and your hair is pretty oily anyway. For all we know the boys put on gobs of Clearasil every night... :D

 

Bangs (also known as a fringe) are strands or locks of hair that fall over the scalp's front hairline to cover the forehead, usually just above the eyebrows, though can range to various lengths.
