===Trichomes===
Trichomes are fibers formed from cell walls present around specialized elongated skin cells. They are usually made of cellulose, but chitinous trichomes are not out of the question. They can be branching or monofilament and can easily switch between the two evolutionarily speaking. In real life, they can be found on many "hairy" plants.
