June 2019 in “JEADV. Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology/Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology” This study found that bleaching, dyeing, and UVA/Vis radiation caused significant cuticle damage and protein loss in both Caucasian and Afro-ethnic hair, highlighting the aggressive nature of these treatments.
April 2026 in “Microscopy Research and Technique” In this study, researchers found that a high-cost hair restoration product containing coconut oil and glycerol effectively restored the structural integrity of chemically processed hair, particularly in samples that were significantly damaged by bleaching and color treatments.
June 2002 in “Science of aging knowledge environment” This study suggests that the oncogene c-Myc can induce DNA damage by increasing reactive oxygen species, potentially overriding p53 and contributing to genetic instability in cancer cells.
November 2023 in “Borneo Journal of Pharmacy” In this study, researchers used scanning electron microscopy to analyze hair damage from 3% hydrogen peroxide and UVB radiation, observing that Caesalpinia sappan hair tonic formulations coated and interacted with the hair cuticle, potentially modifying hair fiber damage.
