Hair Sequence

Hair Sequence

A classic rock-and-roll song expresses the importance of the number one:

"One is the loneliest number that you'll ever know. Two can be as bad as one but the loneliest number is the number one." Hair Sequence

When talking about hair, the number one is also quite important. Why does hair grow out of the human head one hair at a time? Because when hairs are not together, meaning stuck together in clumps, it is advantageous to the hair shaft. Consider that each hair on our heads moves independently of the others. This is what causes hair to move and fall naturally—much like blades of grass blowing in a breeze. Each individual hair has its own life, its own personality and its own movement. Individual hairs have their own blood supply. Individual hairs have their own oil glands. Each individual hair is nourished individually.

If human hair grows out of our heads one hair at a time with wonderful natural and beautiful benefits, why mess with nature? Many don't realize it, but virtually all methods of adding hair (including hair extensions, hair replacement, hair weaves, hair pieces, wigs, etc.), add hair in clumps. This is the exact opposite of adding individual hairs. Be aware: some companies will boast that they offer "strand by strand" hair additions, or hair extensions, or other hair replacements, but they are not what you expect from the term "strand by strand." These processes do not offer hairs that are separate from each other, or disbursed evenly.

If human hair grows out of the human head one individual hair at a time, shouldn't you add one hair at a time when replacing it?

This is a difficult task to conquer. Imagine sitting in a chair while someone adds one human hair at a time in between your existing hairs. If this were possible, you would have the most natural head of hair imaginable. But let's be practical. The average head of hair has about 200,000 strands of hair. Even if you added only 10% more hair that would mean you would have to add 20,000 hairs individually—that is, one hair at a time. That would take weeks, or months to do, and I feel sorry for the person who sits through such a painstaking procedure.

Here's a solution. How about taking one human hair, laying it down horizontally, then taking single human hairs and attaching them one at a time to the horizontal human hair. Yes, I mean literally attaching one individual human hair, then a second individual human hair, then a third individual human hair, and so on. If we continue this until the horizontal hair was filled with single human hairs and then added this horizontal hair filled with individually human hairs in between a person's existing hair, we'd have replicated natural growth, but the hair would be in a straight line (not very natural at all.) So what if we made many horizontal hairs and joined them together in different directions—a sort of spider web with individual hairs hanging from it—and put that between a person's natural hair? The result would be remarkable. Each individual human hair would be and moving in its own natural direction. This would be a duplication of nature. Even better, the person doesn't have to sit for days, weeks or months while someone adds one hair a time. This entire procedure could be done within a couple of hours.
