Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of hair follicle development. A developmental process, independent of morphogenetic (shape) change, that is required for a hair follicle to attain its fully functional state. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of hair follicle maturation. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of catagen, the regression phase of the hair cycle. A multicellular organismal process involved in the cyclical phases of growth (anagen), regression (catagen), quiescence (telogen), and shedding (exogen) in the life of a hair; one of the collection or mass of filaments growing from the skin of an animal, and forming a covering for a part of the head or for any part or the whole of the body. The regression phase of the hair cycle during which cell proliferation ceases, the hair follicle shortens, and an anchored club hair is produced. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of hair follicle maturation. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of catagen, the regression phase of the hair cycle.
