follica / ICX Pigment question (Hair Multiplication & Research)

» anyonen know if either study has reported that the hair regrown is either
» pigmented or not?

They reported that in mice the new hair were colorless. However, I doubt they would have the same issue in humans because

a) the hair color comes from the epidermis where the melanin cells are that give your skin color.

b) I haven't heard of a single case of hair regrowth after wounding/accident in which new hair were colorless, which implies that we shouldn't need any special treatment i.e. EGF inhibitors etc to add pigment to the new hair.
