Johnson, 1975

Title: Epilation of growing hair follicles.

Authors: Johnson E

Journal: J Exp Zool 1975 May;192(2):259-63

PMID: 1133570, UI: 75171261

Epilated growing follicles continue to grow. They produce a length of hair which is shorter than that produced by intact follicles over the same period of time, because they grow for a shorter time and at a lower rate.
