Abstract:
A 22-year-old female with two woolly hair nevus of the scalp and a systematized epidermal nevus is reported. This association has been rarely described. Scanning electron microscopy of the woolly hair demonstrates oval and triangular hair shaft sections and longitudinal grooves. The structure of the cuticle was not disturbed.
