Picking a Side: Preferential Laterality in Scalp Hair Density

No overall side preference was observed in the study population, yet many of the healthy individuals tend to preferentially grow more hair on one side of their scalp. It is possible that in addition to genetics, certain behavioral or environmental factors may play a role in laterality.
