research Unzipping the Cuticle of the Human Hair Shaft to Obtain Micron/Nano Keratin Filaments
Researchers extracted tiny keratin filaments from human hair by unzipping its outer layer.
research Variation in Human Hair Ultrastructure Among Three Biogeographic Populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research Pili Annulati with Fragility: Electron Microscopic Findings of a Case
The study found that hair fragility in Pili annulati may be caused by cavities and damage within the hair shafts.
research Influence of Oxidative and Reductive Treatment on Human Hair: Analysis of Hair Damage
Chemical treatments and daily stresses damage hair, especially the cuticle layer.
research Direct Observation of Hair Components Involved in Formation of Permanent Waves
Microfibrils are key for permanent waves, and hydrolyzed keratin improves wave formation and hair condition.

research Expression Analysis of the Type I Keratin Protein Keratin 33A in Goat Coat Hair
Keratin 33A is a key protein in goat winter coats, especially in high-producing breeds.
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 The SYP123-VAMP727 SNARE Complex Is Involved in the Delivery of Inner Cell Wall Components to the Root Hair Shank in Arabidopsis
The SYP123-VAMP727 complex is important for transporting materials that harden the root hair shank in Arabidopsis.
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 Electron Microscope Studies of Hair and Wool
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research Biomechanical Properties of Human Hair with Different Parameters
Thicker hair is stronger, regardless of age, gender, or other factors.
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 Hair in Health and Disease: An Introduction
Hair health depends on various factors and hair loss can significantly affect a person's well-being; understanding hair biology is key for creating effective hair care treatments.
research Effect of Ethnicity and Treatments on In Situ Tensile Response and Morphological Changes of Human Hair Characterized by Atomic Force Microscopy
Different ethnicities and treatments affect human hair strength and structure.
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 Permanent Waving and Hair Straightening
Thioglycolate lotions are the most popular method for permanent waving and hair straightening.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
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 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 Healthy Hair: Form and Function
Hair health is influenced by genetics, aging, and environmental factors, with proper care needed to maintain it.
research Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis Thaliana Is Directed by Calcium and an Endogenous Polarity
Calcium affects where root hairs grow, but other unknown factors determine their growth direction.
research Structural Abnormalities of the Hair Shaft
The document concludes that understanding hair structure is key to diagnosing hair abnormalities and recommends gentle hair care for management.
research Gene Expression in Rat Dermal Papilla Cells: Analysis of 2529 ESTs
Rat dermal papilla cells have unique genes crucial for hair growth.
research Structure of Intermediate Filament Assembly in Hair Deduced from Hydration Studies Using Small-Angle Neutron Scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Porosity at Different Structural Levels in Human and Yak Belly Hair and Its Effect on Hair Dyeing
Yak belly hair has higher porosity and is less stiff than human hair, making it absorb dye better but less suitable as a direct substitute for hair dyeing.
research Straight to the Point: What Do We Know So Far on Hair Straightening?
Hair straightening can damage hair and pose health risks, including exposure to carcinogens and hair loss.
