research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Hair can't be reliably repaired once damaged; prevention and proper product use are key to maintaining hair health.
research Research Progress in Composition, Classification and Influencing Factors of Hair
Lipids are important for healthy hair, but their exact role is not fully understood and needs more research.
research Reimagining Hair Science: A New Approach to Classify Curly Hair Phenotypes via New Quantitative Geometrical and Structural Mechanical Parameters
New methods to classify curly hair types were developed based on shape and strength.
research SEM/SDD-EDS: An Analytical Tool to Identify Waterborne Micro Minerals Pickup in Human Scalp Hair Cuticle Due to Water Quality
Water quality affects mineral content in hair, and coconut oil can protect against damage.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Ultrastructural Characteristics of Neonate Scalp Hair
Neonate scalp hair is thinner, lacks a medulla, and has smaller follicles compared to adult hair.
research Skin, Genetic Defects, and Aging
Genetic defects and UV radiation cause skin damage and aging.
research Characteristic Microstructure of Curved Human Hair
Curved human hair has different structures on each side, which might cause its shape and is similar to wool.
research Analysis of Cosmetic Residues on a Single Human Hair by ATR FT-IR Microspectroscopy
Cosmetic residues on individual hairs can be identified and differentiated using ATR FT-IR microspectroscopy.
research Natural Green Sugar-Based Treatment for Hair Styling
Scientists created a non-toxic, sugar-based hair product that can style hair without damage.
research Dyeing Regions of Oxidative Hair Dyes in Human Hair Investigated by Nanoscale Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry
Hair dye colors mainly target melanin granules in black hair.
research Acid Phosphatase Distribution in the Wool Follicle: Fate of Organelles in Keratinized Cells
Keratinized wool cells still have some organelles like lysosomes and mitochondria.
research Effect of Scalp Position on Tensile Properties of Single Hair Fibers
Hair strength is similar across different scalp areas, and not affected by age, gender, or hair thickness.
research Characteristic Microstructure of Curved Human Hair
Curved human hair has different structures on its convex and concave sides.
research Bioinspired Peptides Designed for Hair Perming and Dyeing With Potential for Repair
PepACS offers a safer, eco-friendly way to perm, dye, and repair hair.
research An Overview of Chemical Straightening of Human Hair: Technical Aspects, Potential Risks to Hair Fiber and Health, and Legal Issues
Chemical hair straightening can damage hair and health, needing safer alternatives and stricter regulations.
research Anatomy and Physiology of Hair
Hair is important for protection, social interaction, and temperature control, and is made of a growth cycle-influenced follicle and a complex shaft.
research An Epistatic Effect of KRT25 on SP6 Is Involved in Curly Coat in Horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
research Nanomaterials in Hair Care and Treatment
Nanomaterials can improve hair care products and treatments, including hair loss and alopecia, by enhancing stability and safety, and allowing controlled release of compounds, but their safety in cosmetics needs more understanding.
research Ultrastructure of the Contrasting Types of Keratinization Seen in the Tail Epidermis of the Laboratory Mouse Mus Musculus
Mouse tail skin has different keratinization near hair follicles and scales.
research Application of an Enzymatic Method for Identifying Hair Treatments
The enzymatic method can effectively identify chemical treatments on hair.
research Editors' Picks
Scientists found gene mutations that affect hair loss, skin stem cells, and skin disorders, and identified drugs that may help treat blood vessel and skin conditions.
research Properties of Partially Extracted Hairs and Their Degradability by Proteases
Mf-rich hair degrades more than Ma-rich hair, especially with Proteinase K.
research Isolation of Intermediate Filament Assemblies from Human Hair Follicles
Researchers isolated and identified structural components of human hair follicles, providing a model for studying hair formation.
research Raman Spectroscopy and Electronic Microscopy Structural Studies of Caucasian and Afro Human Hair
Hair treatments cause significant structural changes, especially with excessive heat, regardless of ethnicity.
research Heat-Damaged Evaluation of Virgin Hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
research PH Dependence of the Coiled-Coil Structure of Keratin Intermediate Filament in Human Hair by 13C NMR Spectroscopy and the Mechanism of Its Disruption
Keratin structure in hair is stable at pH 5-6 but disrupts between pH 6-7.
research Enzymatic Method for Assessing Hair Damage with Reduction and Subsequent Oxidation
Permed hair degrades faster and shows more damage after protease treatment compared to untreated hair.
research Hair: Overview
The document explains how hair is studied in forensics to identify its source and its role in criminal investigations.
