research Development of a Stiffness-Angle Law for Simplifying the Measurement of Human Hair Stiffness
Hair stiffness increased by 13.2% after caffeine treatment, validating the Stiffness-Angle Law as an effective measurement method.
research Age, Lifestyle, and Self-Perceptions of Hair: Is There an Association with Hair Diameter and Tensile Properties?
Older age and certain lifestyles are linked to thinner, weaker hair, while how you see your hair relates to its thickness.
research Vertical or Horizontal Scalp Mobility: What to Assess
The vertical method is better for assessing scalp mobility, providing more hair for transplant.
research An Analysis of Follicular Punches, Mechanics, and Dynamics in Follicular Unit Extraction
Using sharp tools and the right techniques in hair transplant surgery leads to less damage to hair follicles.
research Chronic Treatment with Minoxidil Induces Elastic Fiber Neosynthesis and Functional Improvement in the Aorta of Aged Mice
Minoxidil treatment increases aorta elasticity and reduces stiffness in aged mice, potentially helping with age-related heart issues.
research A Fibrous Hybrid Patch Couples Cell-Derived Matrix and Poly(L-Lactide-Co-Caprolactone) for Endothelial Cells Delivery and Skin Wound Repair
The new patch made of cell matrix and a polymer improves wound healing and supports blood vessel growth.
research Characterization of Hair Lipid Images by Argon Sputter Etching-Scanning Electron Microscopy
Hair texture changes with age due to varying levels of lipids.
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 Biomacromolecules/Modified Halloysite Composite Hydrogel Used as Multifunctional Wound Dressing
The new hydrogel is good for wound dressing because it absorbs water quickly, has high porosity, can release drugs, fights bacteria, and helps wounds heal with less scarring.
research Physical Characterization of the Hair of Mexican Women
Mexican women's hair is between Asian and Caucasian hair in thickness and shape, with varied strength and some damage.
research Engineered Skin Substitute Regenerates Skin with Hair Follicle Formation
The engineered skin substitute helped grow skin with hair on mice.
research Stiffness of Human Hair Correlates with the Fractions of Cortical Cell Types
