This study identified new geometric and mechanical parameters for curly and kinky/coily hair, which may inform more effective personal care products tailored to these hair types.
January 2016 in “Belarusian State Pedagogical University repository (Belarusian State Pedagogical University)” This research suggests that geometric classification of hair into fewer groups may be more reliable and useful for studying hair characteristics, rather than racial descriptions, especially in medical and forensic applications.
May 2023 in “Accounts of chemical research” This study aimed to identify new quantitative geometric and mechanical parameters for curly and kinky hair using various microscopy and mechanical analysis methods, revealing correlations between hair fiber geometry and mechanical performance to enhance personal care product development and promote cultural inclusion.
This study used quantitative methods to identify new geometric and mechanical parameters of curly and kinky/coily hair, aiming to improve classification and develop better personal care products for these hair types.
November 2025 in “Physics of Fluids” In this study, low-intensity ultrasound was investigated as a noninvasive method for promoting hair regrowth in androgenetic alopecia using C57BL/6 male mice, revealing that specific frequencies and intensities can safely enhance hair regrowth compared to controls by optimizing mechanical effects without causing unsafe cavitation.
