This hair has a strong tendency to fall out.
Cuneiform or dwarf hair looks a lot like hair in a normal growth phase. However, unlike this hair, it does not grow beyond this length and has the tendency to disappear permanently.

During an individual’s life hair grows, falls out and regrows around twenty times.
