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.

Hair fibers break by cuticle cell slipping, shape changing, cuticle fraying, and surface cracking when stretched under specific conditions.

This study investigated the effects of wool-derived hydrolysed keratin peptides on relaxed textured hair and found that mid- and high-molecular weight peptides improved mechanical strength and reduced breakage in different humidity conditions.

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 for straight hair, friction mainly influences fragment formation during combing, suggesting no direct connection to tensile fatigue failure, while with textured hair, combing performance may be more complex.

This study reported significant moderate-to-severe complications in two patients following synthetic hair fiber implantation, including recurrent infections, scalp issues, and granulomatous reactions, which were only resolved once the fibers were removed despite initial treatment attempts with antibiotics.

The abstract for Roota Hair Growth describes a product combining botanical extracts with clinically-tested ingredients to target hair thinning, breakage, and scalp fatigue by blocking DHT, strengthening hair fibers, and revitalizing the scalp through a precision roll-on applicator, offering a natural alternative for healthier hair.

The investigators highlighted Roota Hair Growth as a promising botanical solution for hair concerns, suggesting it may improve hair health by addressing the root causes of thinning, breakage, and scalp fatigue.

This research focuses on Milagros's strategy to internationalize by exporting their intensive repair hair mask to Mexico, France, and the United States, examining each market's potential and challenges in the global hair care sector.

This study found that repeated cycles of wetting and blow-drying hair fibers can cause cracks in the hair cuticles, particularly among individuals who frequently blow-dry their hair.

This source describes SwaLife Hair Bloom Onion Oil as a treatment that uses onion extract and herbs to strengthen hair, prevent breakage, and promote growth, while offering a relaxing, traditional head massage experience.

This study reported that among 1337 patients receiving biocompatible artificial hair implants, common side effects included mild inflammation (7%) and itching (<3%), while patient satisfaction was high at 96%, though COVID-19 may have impacted some results.

This article describes a new method for staining hair fibers that visualizes keratin filaments without the need for OsO4 fixation or sulfur bond breakage, but it provides no new experimental results beyond the method itself.

This study tested five different brands of hair building fibers, examining their electrostatic and dielectric properties as well as analyzing their fiber structure with scanning electron microscopy.

This study observed that repeated low-depth microneedling in patients with androgenetic alopecia led to initial hair improvement but subsequently caused hair-shaft fragility and breakage, suggesting iatrogenic damage.

This study found that the acidic hair straightening formulation at pH 1.0 improved hair alignments and straightening effectiveness more than pH 2.0, but it weakened fiber strength and affected hair color and composition.

This review discusses in vitro methods for evaluating the effects of hair care products on hair fibers, reporting no new results; the authors emphasize the importance of selecting appropriate and accurate equipment for testing.

Hair styling products can damage hair over time.

This study found that the HairCheck® device, demonstrating high correlation between its Hair Mass Index and hair characteristics such as strand number and diameter, may be an effective tool for assessing hair mass changes in alopecia patients.

This study found that using cationic and non-ionic polymers during alkaline hair relaxer treatments may help strengthen hair and control swelling, potentially reducing damage.

This report describes a case of acquired trichorrhexis nodosa in a woman with severe iron deficiency anemia, highlighting a possible link between the two conditions.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This study found that high-power millimeter wave exposure can cause skin injury in mice, with the severity of damage correlating to the duration of radiation.

In this study, researchers observed that more hairs are extracted from the follicle with intact root bulbs than breakage occurring along the fiber in treated versus untreated hair.

In this study, the use of internal wool lipid liposomes was shown to improve the lipid composition and increase the resistance to breaking in both untreated and chemically treated hair fibers.

Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.

This study of African-American women found that those perceiving greater hair breakage showed lower break stress and higher premature failure rates, linked to grooming practices and hair curvature.

The study reported that using polyamide hair fiber implants may be an effective adjunctive treatment for scalp scars, with most patients experiencing no complications.

This study found that reinforcing clayey soil with human hair fibers increased its strength significantly, both before and after freeze-thaw cycles, suggesting its potential use in cold climate zones.

This study found that hair treated with shampoo containing water-soluble silicone demonstrated smoother sliding and better detangling, compared to shampoo with water-insoluble silicone, due to differences in conditioning film formation.
