The present study was conducted to provide baseline data on the morphogenetic types of melanin from the black hair roots during their anagen phase. Those differences were investigated using electron microscope. Black hair roots (4 to 5 each) were donated by a healthy male in his 30s. The samples were cut into 2 sections using an ultra microtome. For TEM analysis, each hair root sample was fixed for 2 h at 4
