ABSTRACT:
Artificial human hair follicles which encapsulate human hair ends and used for hair implantation. Human hairs are cleansed, the ends are then primed with a suitable silicone primer and up to two coatings are provided in order to form thereon a human hair follicle emulation that will be effacatious for the implantation of the treated hairs into the human derma. The artificial follicled human hairs may be implanted individually or in bundles of up to fourteen hairs with each hair strand and each bundle provided with a follicle-emulating bulbous root. In the preparation protocol, a single hair strand is first cleansed, the end is primed to receive a silicone polymer coating, a first coating is applied and before complete cure of the first coating, a second coating comprising a bulbous silicone elatomeric follicle is applied in such a fashion that the first coating will extend for a predetermined distance beyond the artificial follicle. The extension is noteworthy in that it precludes the destruction of the hair shaft by proteins inherent in the derma.
