Coloured SEM of a human hair on the skin
Hair on skin. Coloured Scanning Electron Micro- graph (SEM) of a hair on the surface of human skin. At centre is a shaft of hair (dark grey) which has emerged from a follicle in the skin. Epidermal cells of the skin (brown) form concentric layers around the hair, with some dead cells of the epidermis peeling off. Hair is made up of a fibrous protein called keratin. The hair shaft is covered with overlapping keratin scales or plates (as seen) which, it is thought, prevent hairs from matting together. Each hair follicle is located in the epidermis of the skin, forming a deep root which anchors the hair. Magnification: unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of a human hair on the surface of the skin. The coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) reveals a close-up view of a hair shaft emerging from its follicle in the skin. The dark grey shaft stands at the center, surrounded by concentric layers of brown epidermal cells that form an outer protective barrier. The image showcases the fascinating composition of hair, which is primarily made up of keratin, a fibrous protein. Overlapping scales or plates made of keratin cover the hair shaft, preventing it from matting together and maintaining its structure. Some dead cells from the epidermis can be observed peeling off around the hair. Each individual hair follicle is deeply rooted within the epidermis, providing stability and anchoring for each strand. Although unknown magnification was used to capture this image, it offers viewers an extraordinary glimpse into our body's microscopic world. This photograph not only serves as a testament to scientific advancements in microscopy but also highlights various subjects such as anatomy, histology, and human biology. It reminds us how even something as seemingly ordinary as a single strand of hair holds remarkable complexity when viewed through this lens.
