September 2008 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science” This study demonstrated that using chelants like N , N ′ ‐ethylenediamine disuccinic acid in hair coloring products can significantly reduce keratin fiber damage by preventing the formation of metal-induced free radicals.
August 2023 in “Journal of Health and Beauty” This study found that the newly developed hair product K-30 increased both protein content and weight in chemically damaged hair to levels similar to healthy hair, unlike traditional products that only temporarily improve texture.
March 2011 in “Focus on surfactants” Several companies launched new hair care ingredients in 2011 to improve conditioning, color retention, combability, and heat protection.
April 2026 in “Cosmetics” This study developed and tested a shampoo with semi-permanent dyes designed to gradually cover gray hair, reporting maintained stability and effective gray–black coloration on high-canities hair tresses through eight wash cycles.
March 2005 in “Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology” This study found that reintroducing certain depleted amino acids into weathered hair using cosmetic treatments can strengthen the hair, improving its look and feel and reducing damage and breakage.
September 2010 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science” This study describes a microfluorometric method to quantify lipid removal and reattachment on human hair during light exposure and chemical treatments, altering hair surface properties from hydrophobic to hydrophilic.
November 2025 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” In this study, researchers investigated how different hair dye processes affect hair structure, finding that oxidative dyes disrupt hair more than semi-permanent dyes, and emerging technologies could help maintain hair health while achieving desired color.
