Who doesn't like a stylish haircut to give a boost to the look?
Our hair, like our nails, never stop growing. That's why we can cut it in various ways without running the risk of getting your head naked.
Hair is a strand produced by a gland that lies beneath the skin. Hair sprouts in the follicle, which is a kind of tube in which cells produce proteins and keratin. These substances accumulate in its interior and are pushed upwards, harden and take the form of a string.
There are all types of hair: straight, frizzy, yellow, red, etc. Color and texture are determined by genetic factors.
