For hair cells on the external skin, see Hair follicle. For algal 'hair cells', see Trichocyte (disambiguation) . See also: Stereocilia (inner ear). Hair cells are the sensory receptors of both the auditory system and the vestibular system in all vertebrates.Through mechanotransduction, hair cells detect movement in their environment.esearch of the past decades has shown that outer hair cells do not send neural signals to the brain, but that they mechanically amplify low-level sound that enters the cochlea. The amplification may be powered by the movement of their hair bundles, or by an electrically driven motility of their cell bodies.
