This study found that milk protein grafting and cross-linking treatment significantly improved the pilling resistance of rabbit hair knitted fabric.

In this study, UVB exposure was found to alter certain chemical properties of the hair shaft, such as keratin components and water content, without significantly affecting its physical morphology.

In this study, researchers found that a protein-enriched cream made from Spirulina platensis improved the physical structure of natural hair, as evidenced by more intact and smoother cuticles compared to a control cream without protein, suggesting its potential for hair care applications.

This study observed that treating human hair with NaOH led to partially removed cuticles, resulting in better fiber cohesion and mechanical properties similar to wool, unlike bleach or formic acid treatments, which weakened the fibers.

This study suggests that applying a botanical extract targeting mechanosensory receptors improved well-being, oxytocin levels, and skin appearance in participants, unlike a placebo.

This chapter provides an overview of the complex chemical and physical structure of the hair surface, detailing how factors like ethnicity, environmental stress, and cosmetic treatments can alter its properties and influence the adhesion of hair care products.

This article reviews the role of skin surface lipid in mediating environmental stressors and discusses potential therapeutic interventions, reporting no new experimental findings.

This study found that keratin coatings from human hair may improve the colony-forming efficiency of human mesenchymal stem cells by moderating donor variability, suggesting a potential use in clinical applications.

This review outlines various clinical methods for assessing ageing skin and discusses their application in supporting the efficacy claims of anti-ageing treatments, but it reports no new clinical results.

This collection of papers reviews recent research on women's skin, focusing on hormonal influences, environmental impacts, and specific skin disorders, with no new clinical results reported.

The study found that the Marangoni effect causes the uneven wetting of surfactant-coated hair due to the surfactant moving into the water.

Hair fibers interact through classical forces, which are influenced by treatments and products, important for hair care and other applications.

Hair from people with seborrheic dermatitis is thicker scaled, more damaged, and thinner than healthy hair, and atomic force microscopy can help monitor the condition.

In this study, researchers used atomic force microscopy to capture and analyze morphological changes in the surface of healthy hair, identifying features such as pitting and rod-shaped macro-fibrillar elements, which could inform future research on hair conditions and care.

In this study, researchers found that Asian hair contains more integral lipids than European or African hair, which may protect it better from UV-induced damage.

Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.

This study demonstrated that human hair can be coated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles, allowing it to be oriented and moved by a magnetic field, which may enhance drug delivery and hair care applications.

This study used atomic force microscopy to identify significant morphological differences in hair from patients with lichen planopilaris compared to healthy controls, noting more scratches, uneven edges, and pitted scales in affected hair, which may aid future research on the condition.

This study employed a laser-based method to analyze how light reflection patterns vary on human hair fibers, revealing changes related to hair color and the tilt of the cuticle cells.

This study found that the stratum corneum of scalp skin in humans has distinct functional characteristics compared to the facial skin and volar forearm, including higher hydration levels and intermediate epidermal turnover rates.

This study reports that among men, skin surface hydration and pH change with age, but transepidermal water loss and sebum production show less variation.

This study proposes using superhydrophobic surfaces to reduce protein fouling and enable self-cleaning in microfluidic devices, detailing preparation and quantification methods for these coatings.

In this study, researchers developed a regression model that reasonably predicts consumer-perceived hair breakage using various parameters such as hair smoothness, detangling forces, extensional strength, and hair density among Indian women.

This study found that treating damaged hair with maleic-modified amino silicone oil created a highly hydrophobic surface, reducing water content and improving hair's mechanical properties and thermal stability.

This review discusses how engineering cell surfaces with polyelectrolytes can address challenges in cell therapy and related biomedical fields and reports no new research findings.

This study reports that injecting a non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid compound into keratosis pilaris-affected skin led to significant improvements in roughness, redness, and overall skin condition, while maintaining a favorable safety profile, making it a promising alternative treatment option.

In this study, a bleaching protocol was developed to evaluate hair repair products, revealing that K18® and Olaplex® improve hair brightness and lightness, with distinct impacts on hair fiber properties.

This study found that facial threading decreased skin roughness and improved subjective assessments of skin smoothness and color after three sessions.

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 modern styling cosmetics can significantly alter hair structure through changes in interfacial chemistry and cohesion, particularly when applied to already damaged hair.
