30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Understanding Curly Hair Mechanics: Fiber Strength
Curly hair is mechanically different from straight hair and may need new testing methods.
research Chapter 4: Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research The Failure Behavior of the Anchorage of Hairs During Slow Extraction
Growing hairs are easier to pull out than resting hairs due to different anchorage strengths.
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 Biomechanics of Hair Fiber Growth: A Multi-Scale Modeling Approach
The model shows that factors like follicle shape and stiffness are key for hair growth and anchoring.
research Reimagining Hair Science: A New Approach to Classify Curly Hair Phenotypes via New Quantitative Geometrical and Structural Mechanical Parameters
A new system for classifying curly hair types using precise measurements can improve hair care products and cultural inclusion.
research Effect of Freezing-Thawing on Clayey Soils Reinforced with Human Hair Fibers
Adding human hair to clayey soil makes it stronger, even after freeze-thaw cycles, and is eco-friendly and cheap.
research Effect of Equilibrium pH on the Structure and Properties of Bleach-Damaged Human Hair Fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
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 Chemical Bonds and Hair Behavior: A Review
Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair's strength, especially when wet.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Changes of Curvature with Regain of Set Wool and Hair Fibers
Merino wool fibers change shape with moisture, while human hair shape stays the same.
research Repair of Damaged Hair Protein Fiber by Jointly Using Transglutaminase and Keratin
Using an enzyme and keratin treatment can significantly repair and strengthen damaged hair.
research Comparison of Quality Performance of Human Hair Types with Herbal Oils by Analysis Techniques
Grape seed oil improved hair quality the most, followed by rosehip and safflower seed oils, and reduced damage from shampoo.
research Rice Derivatives in Hair Protection
Rice derivatives in conditioners protect and improve hair health.
research Dataset From the Uniaxial Tensile Testing of Human Curly Hair Fibers Under Different Conditions
Curly hair's strength and flexibility vary with moisture and temperature.
research Strain and Strain Recovery of Human Hair from the Nano- to the Macroscale
Human hair can almost fully recover its structure within about 1,000 minutes after being stretched.
research New Ethanol and Propylene Glycol Free Gel Formulations Containing a Minoxidil-Methyl-Beta-Cyclodextrin Complex as Promising Tools for Alopecia Treatment
New gel formulas without ethanol and propylene glycol, containing a minoxidil-methyl-β-cyclodextrin complex, have been created for treating hair loss.
research Single Hair Fiber Assessment Techniques to Discriminate Between Mineral Oil and Coconut Oil Effect on Hair Physical Properties
Coconut oil makes hair stronger and more flexible than mineral oil.
research Healthy Hair: Form and Function
Hair health is influenced by genetics, aging, and environmental factors, with proper care needed to maintain it.
research Biomechanical Properties of Scalp Flaps and Their Correlations to Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Procedures
Scalp flaps are stiffer than skin from other body areas, which helps in planning reconstructive and cosmetic head surgeries.
research Mechanical and Biological Properties of Keratose Biomaterials
Keratose, derived from human hair, is a non-toxic biomaterial good for tissue regeneration and integrates well with body tissues.
research Injectable Gelatin/Metal/Tea Polyphenol Double Nanonetworks for Diabetic Wound Healing
New injectable hydrogels with gelatin, metal, and tea polyphenols help heal diabetic wounds faster by controlling infection, improving blood vessel growth, and managing oxidative stress.
research Permanent Waving and Hair Straightening
Thioglycolate lotions are the most popular method for permanent waving and hair straightening.
research Action of Thioglycolic Acid and L-Cysteine on Disulfide Cross-Links in Hair Fibers During Permanent Waving Treatment
Thioglycolic acid and L-cysteine change hair structure differently during perms, affecting hair strength and curling efficiency.
research Fracture in Hierarchical Biomaterials: Human Hair
Human hair's structure makes it tough and resistant to breaking.
research Skin Shedding and Tissue Regeneration in African Spiny Mice (Acomys)
African spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair, and cartilage, but not muscle, and their unique abilities could be useful for regenerative medicine.
research Some Tensile Properties of Specialty Hair Fibers
Animal hair fibers like wool and mohair are strong when dry, but vicuna fibers are very brittle.
research Hair Resistance to Mechanical Wear
Hair's resistance to wear varies by ethnicity and treatment, with less wear indicating stronger hair.
