research High-Throughput Phenotyping Methods for Quantifying Hair Fiber Morphology
Quantifying hair shape is better than using racial categories for understanding hair characteristics.
research How Different Is Human Hair? A Critical Appraisal of Global Hair Fibre Characteristics and Properties Towards Defining a More Relevant Framework for Hair Type Classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research High-Throughput Phenotyping Methods for Quantifying Hair Fiber Morphology
Hair fiber shape and curvature are not significantly linked when ancestry is considered.
research The Cross-Section Trichometer: A Device for Measuring Hair Quantity, Loss, and Growth
The Cross-section Trichometer is a promising tool for measuring hair characteristics without cutting the hair and may have various clinical uses.

The Cross-section Trichometer is a new tool that can measure hair quantity and detect hair loss and growth.
research Light Scattering from Human Hair Fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
research Age, Lifestyle, and Self-Perceptions of Hair: Is There an Association with Hair Diameter and Tensile Properties?
Older age and certain lifestyles are linked to thinner, weaker hair, while how you see your hair relates to its thickness.
research Light Scattering from Human Hair Fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics rendering of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Men and Women
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment can significantly increase hair count and thickness in people with Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA) with minimal side effects.
research Cyberspace Chat: Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP): Pseudoscience or Fact
The article concludes that PRP might help with hair loss, but more detailed research is necessary.
research Quantitative Evaluation in Transverse Histological Sections of the Scalp
The study found average numbers for different types of hair follicles in the scalp and observed differences between men and women, suggesting reasons for more common hair shedding in women.
research Optical Coherence Tomography: Promising In Vivo Measurement of Hair Shaft Cross Section
OCT is a reliable, noninvasive way to measure hair thickness.
research The Transverse Anatomy of Androgenic Alopecia
The study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are better for analyzing hair loss, showing fewer hairs and more fine hairs in balding areas.
research Research Techniques Made Simple: Optical Clearing and Three-Dimensional Volumetric Imaging of Skin Biopsies
3D imaging of skin biopsies offers better accuracy but is time-consuming and can't clear melanin.
research A Modular Modeling Approach for Investigating Wool Critical Buckling from Biologically Variable Along-Fiber Microstructure
The model helps understand how wool fiber structure affects its strength and flexibility.
research Azimuthal Scattering from Elliptical Hair Fibers
Light scatters differently from elliptical hair fibers than from circular ones, and a new model better predicts this behavior, especially for shiny highlights.
research Analysis of Heterogeneous Reaction Between Reducing Agents and Keratin Fibers Using Raman Spectroscopy and Microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
research Latanoprost-Loaded Nanotransfersomes Designed For Scalp Administration Enhance Keratinocytes Proliferation
Latanoprost-loaded nanotransfersomes could help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth.
