This source highlights the utility of cationic polymers in haircare products for protecting against hair damage from chemical treatments and grooming, and describes how microfluorometry can measure polymer deposition and penetration on hair fibers.

In this study, phospholipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles were found to enhance quercetin's hair regrowth potential in testosterone-induced alopecia in rats by efficiently delivering the compound to hair follicles.

This study found that dimethicone with high molecular weight improved hair surface characteristics, while dimethicone copolyol and amodimethicone enhanced manageability by reducing friction or aiding styling on damaged hair.

This study found that the nonionic surfactant Brij 78 stabilized cationic minoxidil microparticles against aggregation, maintaining their substantivity in the presence of excess anionic surfactant.

The zinc pyrithione hair care system improves scalp hydration and reduces water loss.

This study found that Gp₄G increased hair length, papilla cell numbers, and versican deposition in treated animals, potentially through alterations in hair follicle phases and nucleotide concentrations.

In this study, an Emulgel containing Tridax procumbens extract was formulated and found to have promising physical properties and antimicrobial activity for wound healing.

This study concludes that phospholipid–polymer hybrid nanoparticles may be an effective delivery system for quercetin in treating androgenic alopecia by improving hair regrowth and preventing hair follicle cell apoptosis in rat models.

In this chemical investigation, cyclospongiaquinone 1 from the sponge Verongula cf. rigida showed strong steroid 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, comparable to that of finasteride.

This study found that using poly(ethylene imine) as a counterion reagent improved the colorability and shampoo fastness of bleached human hair when dyed with an acid dye.

This study found that chemically modifying hair with 2-iminothiorane hydrochloride improved the permanence of hair setting without damaging the hair by increasing disulfide bonds.

This study found that adding certain conditioning agents, including jojoba oil and lauryl PEG/PPG‐18/18 methicone, to ammonium thioglycolate straightening emulsions protected Afro-ethnic hair from protein loss and improved resistance to breakage.

This study developed a method using ultra-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry to detect illegal substances in hair loss prevention cosmetics, revealing that some products contained high levels of minoxidil and finasteride, posing safety risks.

This study suggests that polymersomes decorated with chitosan improve the transdermal delivery of finasteride, providing an alternative drug delivery system with higher drug retention in the skin.

This study concluded that the formulated polyherbal shampoo is a chemical-free product with nourishing, conditioning, cleansing, and antimicrobial effects.

This study reported that a new coating made with delaminated Ti₃C₂ MXene nano-sheets and a tea-derived compound effectively protects hair keratin from damage by providing UV screening, thermal dissipation, and antioxidation, while also enhancing mechanical strength and restoring wettability.

This study developed a biocompatible hair-dyeing technology using a dark polyphenol complex, which demonstrated effective hair coating, improved mechanical strength, and strong antioxidant properties while maintaining high cell viability.

This study found that cationic surfactant-based conditioning systems significantly reduce friction on hair fibers, improving wet and dry combability by forming a stable film layer on the hair’s surface, as verified by both instrumental and sensory evaluations.

This study found that a peptide treatment using Protein disulphide isomerase improved the mechanical and thermal properties of over-bleached hair by promoting deeper peptide penetration and attachment.

This study found that keratin-based particles were able to recover and enhance the mechanical properties and thermal stability of virgin and overbleached Asian hair, improving its strength and smoothness by around 40%, and demonstrated safety in human skin keratinocytes.

This study found that while short-term use of PEG-400 and Thiazone affected rat skin structure, the changes were reversible with no long-term effects observed.

This study identified an optimal sulfate-free and silicone-free conditioning shampoo formulation using 1% hyaluronic acid at 800 kDa, 10% acidic sophorolipid, and 1% sodium chloride, which maintains essential conditioning and cleansing properties without compromising on performance.

This study found that pretreatment with KP-Cryst fusion proteins effectively protected Asian and Caucasian virgin hair from thermal damage by maintaining higher water content and preventing structural changes during heat application.

0.1% piroctone olamine in hair tonics effectively treats dandruff.

This study found that cationic surfactant-based conditioning systems significantly improve hair combability by forming a stable low-friction film on hair surfaces, reducing friction and enhancing sensory performance compared to standard systems, as confirmed by both instrumental and sensory evaluations.

This study suggests that true binary and ternary inclusion complexes were formed between finasteride and 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin, with or without the addition of specific polymers.

In this retrospective study, QR678 Neo, a biomimetic peptide treatment for androgenetic alopecia, improved hair density by 30% compared to 18% with platelet-rich plasma, with patients reporting higher satisfaction.

This study found that a hair conditioner using peptides from Pneumatophorus japonicus heads improved damaged hair's structure, gloss, and smoothness more effectively than a commercial wheat protein conditioner by increasing amino acid content and interacting with hair keratin.

In this study, hydrophilic EG7 PTK-UR foams promoted better wound healing and tissue integration in a porcine model compared to more hydrophobic PTK-UR variants and a polyester-based alternative, while matching a collagen-based standard.
