research Hair: Its Structure and Response to Cosmetic Preparations
Hair can be damaged by daily routines, but protein-based products can protect and improve it.
research Internal Structure Changes in Bleached Black Human Hair Resulting from Chemical Treatments: A Raman Spectroscopic Investigation
Chemical treatments on bleached black hair change its internal structure by breaking and reforming bonds, and treatments with hydrolyzed eggwhite protein help repair it.
research Improved Two-Dimensional Electrophoretic Mapping of Japanese Human Hair Proteins; Application to Curved and Straight Japanese Human Hairs; and Protein Identification by MALDI MS and MS/MS Quadrupole Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry
The study found that minor protein differences between curved and straight Japanese hair are unlikely to significantly affect hair structure.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
research Effect of Equilibrium pH on the Structure and Properties of Bleach-Damaged Human Hair Fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research Sequence And Structure Based Assessment Of Non-Synonymous SNPs In Hypertrichosis Universalis
Two specific SNPs in the TRPS1 gene cause excessive hair growth by altering the protein's structure.
research Analysis of Structural Changes in Permanent Waved Human Hair Using Raman Spectroscopy
Permanent waving weakens hair by altering its protein structure.
