You were born with every hair follicle you’ll ever have. Around five million of them. That number doesn’t go up.
What changes is which ones are switched on.
Most follicles sit quiet for years making tiny, colorless peach fuzz you barely notice. Then hormones come along (puberty, pregnancy, birth control changes, PCOS, perimenopause) and flip some of them over to producing thick, dark hair. Same follicle. New instructions.
That’s why you didn’t have chin hair at 25 and suddenly do at 42. Nothing new grew. Something old woke up.
It’s also why I can’t promise “done forever” on hormonal areas. I can clear every follicle that’s active today. I can’t control the ones your body decides to activate next year. That’s what touch-ups are for.
