February 2026 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” This study analyzed how professional hairstyling practices cause thermal damage to human hair, focusing on heat exposure and product use, and proposed a protocol for minimizing damage with heat protection strategies and optimal temperature recommendations.
February 2026 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” The study analyzed how professional hairstyling practices, such as excessive heat and product use, cause thermal damage to hair, and it proposed a protocol that includes heat protection strategies and optimal temperature ranges to minimize this damage for hairstylists.
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.
