[Uncombable hair syndrome. Pili trianguli et canaliculi (author's transl)].
We present a general review of a new syndrome that we described in 1973, under the title "cheveux incoiffables" (uncombable half syndrome). The scanning electron microscopy shows two specific alterations of the hair: a triangular section and a longitudinal groove.
