The document "Hair: Its structure and response to cosmetic preparations" from 1996 discussed the structural properties of hair and how it responded to various cosmetic treatments. It reviewed the composition and keratinization of hair, highlighting structural abnormalities such as trichorrhexis nodosa and trichoptilosis. The paper also examined the effects of shampooing and other cosmetic processes on hair integrity, including issues like matting and bubble hair. The study provided insights into the physical and chemical behavior of hair, contributing to a better understanding of hair care and treatment.
