·        Catagen Phase
The Catagen phase starts at the end of the anagen phase and this short transitional phase lasts for almost 10 days.

·        Telogen Phase
This is the resting phase of the hair and a follicle remains for about 3 months and the entire process is repeated. Each hair follicle is independent and enetres this phase in varied time because or else all your hairs would have fallen altogether otherwise.
