What is hair cancer and how does it affect the scalp and hair follicles?
Hair cancer, also known as cutaneous scalp squamous cell carcinoma, is a type of skin cancer that affects the scalp and hair follicles. It can develop on the scalp where hair grows and can impact the hair follicles, potentially leading to hair loss in the affected area. Early detection and treatment are important to prevent the cancer from spreading and causing further damage.
Do the Follicles in eyelashes remain active longer than follicles of the scalp?

Eyelash follicles have a shorter active growth phase, lasting only a few weeks, while scalp hair follicles can remain active for a few years before entering a resting phase. This is why eyelashes have a shorter maximum length and lifespan compared to scalp hair.
