In this study, 15d-PGJ2 administered in a topical cream inhibited oxidative and inflammatory skin changes caused by UVB radiation in hairless mice, suggesting it as a promising treatment approach.

This case report highlights a rare presentation of hair-thread tourniquet syndrome in a two-year-old child, emphasizing that prompt identification and removal of the constricting fiber is crucial for successful treatment and prevention of tissue damage.

This study successfully developed and optimized ethanol-free microemulsion systems for the transdermal delivery of finasteride, showing that the predicted optimal formulations had physicochemical characteristics close to estimated values, without significant damage to treated hair fibers.

This study found that using a bicomponent reduction system with TGA and DTDG for hair straightening limited hair damage by forming only thiol groups, while a TGA-only system formed more damaging mixed disulfide groups.

This study found that human hair shows progressive damage from UV and gamma radiation exposure, with fluorescence intensity serving as a sensitive measure of radiation-induced changes.

In this study, hair samples from Mexican women were found to be intermediate in diameter and shape between Asian and Caucasian hair, exhibiting high intra- and inter-individual variability and unexpected levels of tensile damage.

This case report describes a 4-month-old infant with hair tourniquet syndrome affecting her toes, where prompt removal of the constricting hairs led to rapid recovery without tissue damage.

This study found that a fibroin-based cosmetic ingredient improved the mechanical properties and cuticle repair of African-American and Caucasian hair types, even when damaged by chemical treatments.

This study found that higher melanin concentration in black hair offers photoprotection against sunlight-induced protein damage in the cortex, whereas the cuticle experiences similar photodamage regardless of hair pigmentation.

This study observed that treating hair follicles with BM15766 and 7DHC led to structural damage, disrupted cellular organization, reduced expression of key genes and proteins, and increased apoptosis, in contrast to controls, indicating detrimental effects on hair follicle integrity.

This study found that novel thiol-reactive cross-linking agents, particularly APA, significantly improved the tensile strength and elasticity of human hair fibers by effectively regenerating disulfide bridges, with potential applications for advanced hair repair treatments in the cosmetic industry.

This study concluded that sodium lauryl sulfate is very toxic to hair, damaging its structure, while natural conditioners help protect hair integrity and improve consistency and shine.

This study observed that treating human hair with NaOH led to partially removed cuticles, resulting in better fiber cohesion and mechanical properties similar to wool, unlike bleach or formic acid treatments, which weakened the fibers.

This study found that high-fructose intake in rats led to significant kidney histological changes, such as podocyte damage and inflammatory responses, which persisted even after returning to a standard diet.

This study found that adding dithiodiglycolic acid to the hair straightening process decreased chemical damage and preserved the structural integrity of the hair matrix compared to using thioglycolic acid alone.

This study reported that keratin films lacking keratin-associated proteins showed different appearance, structure, and color deposit properties compared to conventional keratin films, suggesting potential for evaluating hair damage.

This study found that microfibrils play a crucial role in shaping permanent waves by thioglycolic acid, and treating damaged hair with hydrolyzed keratin improved both waving efficiency and hair damage.

This review discusses complications of frizzy hair syndrome and emphasizes the importance of precautionary measures, but it reports no new research findings.

Polisorbate 20 is not suitable for curl creams due to instability.

This study suggests that a hair dye formulated with nano-sized Calendula Officinalis extract can effectively color white hair and lighten black hair, offering an alternative to synthetic dyes.

In this report, a rare case of hair tourniquet syndrome was described in a six-month-old girl, involving the uvula and requiring surgical intervention to remove the constricting hair.

This narrative review outlines the biological costs of hair extensions, such as traction leading to hair loss and scalp issues, and suggests a prevention-focused model involving risk assessment, surveillance, and tiered therapies to minimize alopecia risk and maintain scalp health.

This review considers oxidative stress effects on hair aging and emphasizes the need for dermatologists to recognize and treat factors affecting scalp and hair health, but it provides no new clinical findings.

This study found that Caucasian hair is destroyed more easily than Asian hair when stretched, as indicated by changes in secondary structure, disulfide bond breakage, and physical disintegration.

This study found that a serum-free culture system supported hair growth from follicles responsive to calcium, glucose, and amino acids, with insulin enhancing the growth, while other factors had no effect.

This study analyzed clinical and histological reports and concluded that blue light therapy is safe for human skin, with potential photoprotective effects against UV irradiation due to its impact on skin pigmentation mediated by Opsin-3.

In this study, researchers developed and optimized ethanol-free microemulsion systems for transdermal finasteride delivery, finding that the predicted formulations closely matched their physical and chemical characteristics, potentially reducing adverse effects compared to oral administration.

This study found that using a microfiber towel to dry human hair better preserves hair keratin integrity and wear resistance compared to blow-drying or using a cotton towel, as indicated by stronger alpha-helix structure in FTIR analysis.

This study found that a sucrose-based crosslinker can effectively straighten hair and maintain durability in high humidity and through repeated washings without affecting the hair's tensile properties or causing surface damage.

This study assessed three materials—L-arginine, hydrolysed keratin, and cystine-silanol copolymer—ex vivo for their potential to reduce undesirable effects of hair bleaching, such as damage to hair proteins.
