research A 6-Month, Prospective, Multi-arm Study for the Efficacy of Standardized Nutraceuticals to Improve Hair Fiber Thickness and Strength

October 2025 in “Dermatology and Therapy”

This study observed that adults with thinning hair who ingested a patented botanical-based supplement experienced significant increases in hair shaft diameter and reductions in hair breakage over 180 days, suggesting improved hair strength and length across various demographic groups.

research Understanding Curly Hair Mechanics: Fiber Strength

8 citations , July 2019 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology”

This study found that the tensile strength of curly hair is influenced by two main components, with springiness (toe region) contributing significantly, unlike in noncurly hair where it is negligible.

Optimization of Compressive Strength of Concrete with Pig-Hair Fibers as Fiber Reinforcement and Green Mussel Shells as Partial Cement Substitute

research OPTIMIZATION OF COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE WITH PIG-HAIR FIBERS AS FIBER REINFORCEMENT AND GREEN MUSSEL SHELLS AS PARTIAL CEMENT SUBSTITUTE

5 citations , March 2017 in “International journal of GEOMATE : geotechnique, construction materials and environment”

This study found that incorporating pig-hair fibers and green mussel shells in concrete increased compressive strength but decreased workability, suggesting potential use in structures not requiring strength above 28 MPa.

research Single hair fiber assessment techniques to discriminate between mineral oil and coconut oil effect on hair physical properties

3 citations , September 2020 in “Journal of cosmetic dermatology”

This study found that coconut oil significantly increased the tensile strength of twisted hair fibers due to its ability to penetrate the hair core, in contrast to mineral oil.

research Application of single hair fibre tensile measurements to create an industry‐standard heat damage scale for hair

July 2025 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science”

In this study, researchers developed a new 6-point scale for evaluating heat damage to hair from straighteners, finding a strong correlation between technical damage measurements and human perception of hair damage.

learn Hair Fibers

Do hair fibers wash out easily, or do you need a special shampoo to remove them? There is no published trial comparing shampoos for removing hair fibers. Because the fibers cling by static rather than bonding chemically, and because users consistently report they rinse out with ordinary shampoo, the specialist fiber-removal shampoos do not appear to be necessary; a clarifying shampoo may help when fibers are layered under hairspray or gel.
