READING:

Help is near for the millions who suffer from and worry about baldness. Scientists say they are close to growing new hair. This is also good news for burns victims. They will be those helped first by any new treatment. The scientists have grown new hair in the laboratory. This is different from current treatments, which transplant hair from the back of the head to areas at the front. The new way is different because the hair keeps growing naturally.

Researchers did not say when this treatment would be available, but said it was closer. People want new hair that's the same shape, size, length and angle as before. Researchers said this needs "engineering solutions". They told balding people that baldness would eventually be treatable. One scientist said the research would "revolutionise" hair-loss treatment. She said: "The first step is actually showing that it can be done."
