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 How Different Is Human Hair? A Critical Appraisal of Global Hair Fibre Characteristics and Properties Towards Defining a More Relevant Framework for Hair Type Classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
Hair and wool strength is affected by the number and type of bonds in their protein structures, with hair having more protein aggregates than wool.
research Preparation and In Vitro Evaluation of Protective Effects of Quercetin-Loaded Solid Lipid Nanoparticles on Human Hair Against UV-B Radiation
Quercetin-loaded nanoparticles protect human hair from UV-B damage.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research Structural and Molecular Hair Abnormalities in Trichothiodystrophy
TTD hair brittleness is caused by multiple structural abnormalities.
research Studies on the Proteome of Human Hair: Identification of Histones and Deamidated Keratins
Human hair contains diverse proteins, including keratins and histones, which could help assess hair health and aging.
research Acidic and Basic Hair/Nail (Hard) Keratins: Their Colocalization in Upper Cortical and Cuticle Cells of the Human Hair Follicle and Their Relationship to Soft Keratins

research Enzymatic Method for Assessing Hair Damage with Reduction and Subsequent Oxidation
Permed hair degrades faster and shows more damage after protease treatment compared to untreated hair.
research Signaling Pathways in Hair Aging
Hair aging is caused by stress, hormones, inflammation, and DNA damage affecting hair growth and color.
research Hair Biology and Nutritional Influences
Eating a balanced diet with the right vitamins and minerals is important for healthy hair, but too many supplements can be harmful.
research The Hair Follicle Enigma
