research External Lipid Function in Ethnic Hairs
African hair has the most lipids, while Caucasian hair is more hydrated and stronger.
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 Hair Weathering And Hair Capacitance Mapping: A Pilot Study
Hair capacitance mapping effectively measures hair surface moisture changes.
research Lipid Losses and Barrier Function Modifications of the Brown-to-White Hair Transition
White hair has less lipid content and absorbs water differently than brown hair.
research Exploring the Effects of Wetting and Free Fatty Acid Deposition on a Hair Fiber Surface Model Incorporating Keratin Associated Protein 5-1
Water and fatty acids affect hair's surface differently based on hair damage, and models can help understand hair-cosmetic interactions.
research Proteins as Hair Styling Agents
Proteins like BSA and keratin can effectively style hair and protect it, offering eco-friendly alternatives to chemical products.
research Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin is often caused by nerve fibers and environmental factors, and can be managed with mild skincare and professional advice.
research Advances in the Chemical Structure of the Hair Surface, Surface Forces and Interactions
Understanding hair surface properties is key for effective hair care products.
research Literature Review on Atopic Dermatitis and Related Studies
Atopic dermatitis may have genetic causes and can be treated with pharmacologic methods, glycerin creams, and controlling Staphylococcus aureus colonization.
research Hair Lipid Structure: Effect of Surfactants
Surfactants in shampoos and conditioners remove some but not all lipids from hair, and more research is needed to understand their full impact.
research Asian Hair: A Review of Structures, Properties, and Distinctive Disorders
Asian hair is generally straight and thick, with unique disorders and properties, and more research is needed to understand it fully.
research Fabrication and Evaluation of Vitamin-Doped ZnO/AgNPs Nanocomposite Based Wheat Gluten Films: Promising Findings for Burn Wound Treatment

research The Genomic Variation in Textured Hair: Implications in Developing a Holistic Hair Care Routine
Afro-textured hair needs personalized care due to its unique genetic traits.
research Marangoni Effect in the Water Wetting of Surfactant Coated Human Hair Fibers
The study found that the Marangoni effect causes the uneven wetting of surfactant-coated hair due to the surfactant moving into the water.
research A Composite Model for the Transport of Hydrophilic and Lipophilic Compounds Across the Skin: Steady-State Behavior
The model better predicts how water-loving and fat-loving substances move through the skin by including tiny pores and hair follicle paths.
research Learning From Hair Moisture Sorption And Hysteresis
Hair moisture behavior helps tell apart different chemical treatments and reveals insights into hair structure.
research MALDI Imaging Mass Spectrometry of Skin: Aspects of Sample Preparation
MALDI Imaging Mass Spectrometry is a useful method for studying skin conditions, but sample preparation is crucial for accurate results.
research The Interaction of Hair Fibers with Alkali Bromide Solutions
Hair absorbs alkali bromide salts and water, affecting its structure, with absorption decreasing at higher temperatures.
research Silver Oxide Based Nanoparticle Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry for the Detection of Low Molecular Weight Compounds
Silver oxide nanoparticles help detect small molecules effectively.
research Activated Carbon Fiber Derived from the Seed Hair Fibers of Metaplexis Japonica: Novel Efficient Adsorbent for Methylene Blue
Activated carbon fibers from Metaplexis japonica seed hair are highly effective for removing the dye methylene blue from water.
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 Ultrasonic-Assisted Extraction and In-Vitro Antioxidant Activity of Polysaccharide from Hibiscus Leaf
The study found an efficient method to extract antioxidants from Hibiscus leaves.
