May 2026 in “Materials Today Bio” This study reported that a bioderived melanoidin/tannic acid nanocomplex forms a durable, antioxidant-active coating on hair fibers, providing enhanced UV protection and improving tensile resilience by suppressing oxidative stress and activating endogenous antioxidant pathways.
March 2025 in “Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (Universidade de São Paulo)” In this study, the researchers observed that ferulic acid and resveratrol effectively protected chemically treated hair from oxidative damage, particularly against protein loss and color degradation, but not cisteine oxydation prevention, and these antioxidants also offered protection against sun-induced damage when used in conditioners.
