When hair falls out with little bulbs (follicles?) at the end does it mean the hair on that spot won't grow back anymore?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES: Loss of the follicle means loss of that hair.....more hair, however will (in most cases) grow back (unless a part of male pattern baldness or alopecia (hair loosing diseases)
