In this case the cloned hair was defective.....
who was this guy?
He's a hair transplant doctor who attends almost all worldwide congresses about hair loss.
According to him, hair multiplication is far far away, if it will ever work at all.

It is about the picture, we humans invent things to clone sheeps and to send people to space so they can surely find a way to regrow hair that is what i meant.
No, the fact they cloned sheeps doesn't imply that for sure they can find a way to regrow hair, EVER!
I assume the biggest difficulties are :
-that the hair follicle is such a microscopic "organ", yet so complex
-that the hair grows so slow , so every experiment has to be quite long( a complete hair cycle takes years).
As we have seen they have already find 101 ways to turn a bald mouse in a completely furry one, so they should stop making "research" on mice and focusing to experimenting on real human scalps instead.
Add that follcile sensitivity to androgens is genetically programmed, and you have a very hard problem to solve.
Yes, at first sight we can say "wtf, why can't they regrow a damn hair"? But, suppose you lost your arm, can medicine regrow it? No. Why should regrowing a hair follicle be easier than regrowing a lost arm, or any other part of your body?
