Understanding the natural phases of hair growth helps explain why restoration takes time


Growth Phase
Lasts 2-7 years. Hair actively grows from the follicle. About 85-90% of your hair is in this phase at any time.

Transition Phase
Lasts 2-3 weeks. Growth stops and the follicle shrinks. Less than 1% of hair is in this phase.

Resting Phase
Lasts 2-4 months. Hair rests before shedding to make room for new growth. About 10-15% of hair is in this phase.
