While the adult brown-haired male is thought to have approximately 100,000 scalp HF,57 blondes tend to have about 20% more and red-heads about 20% less. While many differences in hair growth pattern are likely to have a racial basis, data are very limited and then only available for a few body sites. Before discussing this topic more fully it may be useful to deal first with the definition of ‘excessive’ hair growth. Although ‘excessive’ hair growth is of concern to some women, and indeed some men, it is often very difficult to describe this as ‘abnormal’ hair growth, as there exists strong compounding factors contributed by the ethnic or genetic background of the individual.
