Hair germs begin from an aggregation of keratinocytes in the stratum basale of the [[Integumentary System - Anatomy & Physiology - Epidermis|epidermis]].  The initiating factor is the underlying dermal fibroblast cells.  The keratinocytes elongate, divide and relocate to the dermis.  Dermal fibroblasts then  form a dermal papilla beneath the hair germ.  This causes stimulation of the basal stem cells to up-regulate their cycle, producing cells that will keratinise and for the hair shaft.  2 swellings for on the shaft, one containing stem cells for follicle regeneration, the other becomes a sebaceous gland which will secrete sebum onto the hair shaft.
