Appendix 2—figure 12. 3D simulation of dorsal HF waves, when all HFs have equal probability of anagen initiation, allowing spontaneous anagen initiations.

Here we see spontaneous anagen initiations over the dorsal domain from the very first cycle, against the experimental observations of early head-to-tail wave degenerating into later spontaneous initiations showing some bilateral symmetries. The full time course is shown in Appendix 2—video 1. See Appendix 2—tables 1 - 3 and 5 for parameter values, except ${\lambda }_A={\lambda }_I=0.035$.
