Improving Tensile Properties of Hair with a Natural Moisturizer

The document discussed the importance of hair in human image and the role of cosmetic formulations in altering hair's physical properties. It highlighted that hair is primarily composed of keratin, which is crucial for its tensile strength. The study noted that a single healthy hair requires 50-100 grams of force to rupture, and with an average of 120,000 hairs on a human head, the combined strength could support six to twelve tons. The research focused on improving these tensile properties using a natural moisturizer.
