AB  - Loose anagen hair syndrome (LAHS) is an uncommonly reported autosomal dominant 
      hair disorder with incomplete penetrance that primarily affects children but is 
      occasionally seen in adults. LAHS is characterized by the ability to easily and 
      painlessly extract unsheathed anagen hairs from the scalp with gentle traction. 
      The hair is sparse and does not grow long. Usually the hairs are not fragile and 
      do not have areas of breakage. Initially it was considered a rare, sporadic 
      condition found predominantly in young white girls with blonde hair. Because 
      autosomal dominant inheritance has been reported, it was suspected that the 
      condition might be equally common in boys but was probably underdiagnosed.
