This study investigated the hair structure of wild pigs in the Balıkesir region using stereomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, finding distinct bifurcation patterns, but concluded that pig bristles used in brushes likely wouldn't retain these features, complicating species identification.

This study reports that hair fibers degrade most in acidic sandy clay, while silicone oil treatment is effective for conserving various hair types and artifacts.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, focusing on its multifactorial etiology and challenges in clinical diagnosis, and calls for more research and better treatment options.

This article discusses diagnostic challenges and management approaches for hair loss in women of color, emphasizing the importance of clinical examinations and education to prevent and manage traction alopecia.

Hair can't be as strong as Rapunzel's because it's impractical to scale up due to defects.

This study examined the genetic basis for the curly hair trait in Mangalitza pigs, finding two specific genetic variants that contribute to this distinctive phenotype through autosomal dominant inheritance.

This review covers the connection between thyroid diseases and skin conditions like alopecia, dermatitis, and vitiligo, and highlights the need for further research on the role of thyroid hormones in skin health.

This study suggests that the curly hair phenotype in Mangalitza pigs may involve complex gene interactions related to calcium signaling and lipid metabolism, rather than changes in TRPM2 or CYP4F3 expression.

In this study, researchers examined the histological structure of wild boar skin from three anatomical regions and found it comprises three main layers: epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis, containing various cell types and structures such as hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and fat cells.

This study examined hair follicle arrangement to identify a suspected wild boar involved in a dynamite blast, concluding based on circumstantial evidence that it may have belonged to a wild boar.

This case report describes a Dogo Argentino dog with M. nanum infection, likely from hunting wild boar, that responded well to itraconazole and topical miconazole treatment.

This report from Tangle Teezer and TRI Princeton indicates that their Extra Gentle brush reduces hair breakage by up to 39%, offering a therapeutic experience for users with fragile scalps.

This study found that brushing hair increases the ratio of long-to-short segment breaks compared to combing, with factors like bleaching and wet combing contributing to more long segment breaks.

This study found that wire brush hair snares collected the most hair from Eurasian Lynx in controlled enclosures, suggesting potential for sampling genetic material from similar felid species.

This study described the structure of the hair brush on male Endoclita vietnamensis moths' legs, identifying characteristics such as specialized scales and a pheromone gland, which could facilitate the future development of pheromone-based pest control methods for eucalyptus pests in China.

This study explores the neurobiology and genetics of barbering (hair and whisker biting) in laboratory rodents, and its potential links to stress, aggression, grooming, and stereotypic behaviors, highlighting its significance in experimental work with these animals.

This review article outlines grooming practices and treatments for pseudofolliculitis barbae, noting that while discontinuing shaving is an effective approach, those who cannot do so may benefit from adjusted shaving techniques, chemical depilatories, or laser therapies.

This study found that examining the microscopic and ultramicroscopic structures of donkey and horse hair can help differentiate between the species based on distinct differences in hair cuticle and brain substance patterns.

Proper shaving techniques and specific topical treatments can help manage pseudofolliculitis barbae.

This study characterized the hair follicle patterns of Indian bison, Black buck, and Nilgai, providing valuable data to help identify these endangered species' skins, commonly targeted by poachers.

This paper conducts a scientific evaluation of fine hair issues in American bovine hides and suggests measures to minimize this seasonal problem, particularly in winter production.

This case report describes a man with trichorrhexis nodosa of the beard, who experienced symptomatic improvement after being advised to shave and avoid brushing, confirming the diagnosis.

This chapter reviews techniques for treating pseudofolliculitis barbae and suggests that combining daily shaving with topical treatments like glycolic acid may effectively manage this condition without new clinical results reported.

This study examined the unique structural features of sinus hair follicles in the shrew Sorex unguiculatus, which suggest a specialization for vibration sensing.

This study found that while Bioré pore strips effectively removed microcomedones and trichostatic bundles on the nose without causing irritation, they were less effective than cyanoacrylate extraction.

This case report describes two guinea pigs infested with Acarus farris mites, which were successfully treated with Phoxim and removal of contaminated hay, leading to rapid resolution of skin lesions and alopecia.

This article reviews the causes, classification, and new treatments for pseudofolliculitis barbae but provides no new research findings.

This review covers the history, incidence, and treatment options for pseudofolliculitis barbae and presents new data, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that distinct hair fiber structures among blue fox, mink, and otter rabbit can be used to identify and differentiate these fur types.
