November 2025 in “International Journal of Science and Research Archive” This study reviews how different hair dyeing methods affect hair structure, showing oxidative dyes cause more structural damage than semi-permanent dyes, while new technologies aim to minimize harm while preserving color.
September 2021 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” This review explores the possibility of using the side effects of chemotherapeutic agents for regenerating hair follicles, potentially offering a new treatment avenue for different types of alopecia.
July 2018 in “Elsevier eBooks” This study reviews drug-induced hair changes, noting that hair loss often reverses after stopping the drug, but permanent alopecia cases post-chemotherapy are rising.
January 2010 in “Elsevier eBooks” This chapter reviews the formation of natural hair color, strategies for artificial coloring, and future trends, without presenting new research findings.
September 2021 in “Physiology News” The abstract does not provide any research findings or conclusions to summarize, focusing instead on color and logo specifications.
