Gardening: Hair loss is because the cells forming hair in certain locations, have a genetic sensitivity which causes them to cease working when the age and hormonal environment dictates. Hair plugs are living hair producing cells from parts of the body which do not do this, and so they take root and survive. Skin and hair can be transplanted from most parts of the body to another and they will survive.

Hair replacement: Hair transplant is a type of hair replacement which involves transplantation of hair from the back of the head to the area of hair loss. The hair from the back regions of the head are genetically designed to remain in place despite hormonal changes. Transplantation can be completed by strip or by [fue] follicular unit extraction. Transplantation is completed most naturally as single hairs.
