Hair stops producing melanin as it transitions from the growth phase to the resting phase.

Ruby laser pulses best destroy hair follicles during the growth phase and effectiveness varies with laser intensity; melanin is key for targeting, and timing treatments can improve results.

Poliosis circumscripta is a patch of white hair caused by lack of melanin, linked to genetic and acquired conditions.

Tiger tail bands in hair are caused by wavy hair fibers with melanin, unlike straight fibers in normal hair.

Melanin in black hair protects it from sun damage better than light-brown hair.

SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.

Hair dye colors mainly target melanin granules in black hair.

Human skin and hair color variation is mainly due to melanin produced by a few genes, with melanin protecting against sun damage.

Glycine reduces skin pigmentation by lowering melanin production.

Hair acts as a significant natural sun barrier, with protection increasing based on hair density, thickness, and melanin presence.

Clotrimazole, an antifungal cream, may safely reduce skin pigmentation by breaking down the enzyme needed for making melanin.

Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.

A substance called TCQA could potentially darken hair by activating certain genes and increasing melanin.

Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 may help reduce hair greying and increase melanin production.

Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.

The study found that giant pandas have more melanin in black hair follicles than white, with gene expression differences that could affect hair color and skin health.

CD34+ hair follicle stem cells can become melanin-producing cells for treating skin conditions.

Poliosis causes white hair patches due to lack of melanin.

Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
