In which hair growth phase is hair the easiest for an electrologist to epilate?

The late anagen phase is when hair is most easily epilated by an electrologist. During this phase, the hair is deeply rooted within the follicle and has a strong connection to the hair bulb, making it more amenable to effective removal. In late anagen, hair is actively growing and is in the earlier part of its lifecycle. The hair is typically robust and has the necessary biological structure that is responsive to the electrologist's methods, be it thermolysis or galvanic techniques.

In this phase, the hair has also accumulated sufficient moisture and nutrient supply from the scalp, which can aid in more seamless extraction. Compared to other phases, such as catagen, where the hair growth slows and transitions to eventual shedding, or telogen, where the hair is in a resting and very loose state within the follicle, the late anagen phase offers the optimal conditions for hair removal.

Therefore, an effective electrologist seeks to target hairs during the late anagen phase for the most successful epilation.
