Standard name HP_WOOLLY_HAIR
Systematic name M35719
Brief description Woolly hair
Full description or abstract The term wooly hair refers to an abnormal variant of hair that is fine, with tightly coiled curls, and often hypopigmented. Optical microscopy may reveal the presence of tight spirals and a clear diameter reduction as compared with normal hair. Electron microscopy may show flat, oval hair shafts with reduced transversal diameter. [PMID:20464096]
