Don't forget that the hair follicle is an organ just like the kidney, liver or the heart and just as complex! And to be fair, we still have NOT been able to regenerate a fully functional organ by any measure. All current breakthroughs involve regenerating parts of an organ! So, to expect scientists to do that with hair follicles in 2013 is a bit unrealistic...BUT if you do a bit of research, most stem cell researchers are POSITIVE that by 2020 we should see the major breakthroughs, where we see 3D printing and stem cells coming together to generate a complete and transplantable organ!
That is GREAT news in my opinion! In the grand scheme of things 2020 is actually NOT that far :)
