Zusammenfassung:An apparatus that is configured to stimulate hair growth (100) includes at least one electrode (101). The electrode includes projections such as pins or spikes which extend through the hair of the user and engage a portion of the surface of a user's skin without penetration of the skin. At least one detector (103) is operative to sense at least one condition corresponding to the amount of hair in an area on the user's skin adjacent to the detector. The at least one electrode and at least one detector are in operative connection with control circuitry (102). The control circuitry is operative responsive at least in part to the at least one sensed condition in the area to determine an electrical stimulation pattern (P1-P6) and to cause the electrode to stimulate the area in accordance with the determined pattern.
