Introduction: Woolly-haired is a rare congenital disease that is indicated by extreme kinkiness of the hair. The fragile hair may be present at birth or appear in the first month. It may be due to homozygous or heterozygous mutations in the gene lipase H and lysophosphatidic acid receptor 6. These two genes work together for hair growth and texture. It may be autosomal dominant hereditary woolly hair or autosomal recessive familial woolly hair.
