Patterns of hair loss in men

That is fascinating but it prompts a few thoughts. Why not use body hair for transplant processes? And why does the balding gene only impact on the top of the head and not the sides.

The sides of the hairline as well as the 3 inch section at the bottom of the back of the head is immune from genetic hair loss. Body hair can be used for hair transplants but it has a short growing cycle so if you transplant 100 body hairs, only half will be growing at any one time while the others are in telogen (sleep phase). That means that you generally only get half the value when you transplant body hair when compared to scalp hair.
