This study suggests that policosanol may prevent androgenetic alopecia in mice by regulating hormone levels and suppressing premature hair follicle entry into the regression phase.

Diphenyl ethers can potentially reduce excess oil production when applied on the skin, helping treat conditions like acne.

This study found that among the tested analogs, compound 4e was the most effective in inhibiting wax esters in vivo in the Golden Syrian hamster ear model.

This abstract describes a waxing procedure that removes hair and dead skin cells, leaving the skin smooth, but it reports no new research findings.

Current hair removal methods improve appearance but need more research for better options.

The researchers reported an optimized depilation procedure using cold wax and an extra skin protection step that minimizes injury in mice, revealing similar hair cycle kinetics across strains and supporting the use of Sv129 and B6129F1 mice in hair growth studies.

This chapter discusses management strategies for unwanted hair, focusing on the distinction between depilation and epilation, and reports no new clinical results.

This article explores the rising popularity of body sugaring as a hair removal technique and reports no new research findings.

This review discusses the history and composition of permanent hair waving products for different hair types and reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers developed microcapsules and effervescent tablets containing policosanol from insect wax, achieving high encapsulation efficiency and rapid water dispersion, effectively addressing the challenges of solubility and psychological acceptance in consuming insect-based lipids.

This study found that photoepilation in mice may disrupt normal dermal wound healing and increase the risk of hypertrophic scars or keloids.

Laser hair removal can be effective for people with darker skin tones.

In this study, 20% whale oil applied to mice was observed to promote hair growth more effectively than a control or 3% minoxidil, showing increased hair follicles and thicker subcutaneous tissue.

This study found that while all hair removal techniques increased axillary erythema and skin dryness, shaving caused less erythema but more dryness than plucking or waxing, without affecting post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or other skin properties.

The CWARTS tool is a promising method for assessing warts and could improve treatment and research.

This study examines the potential effectiveness of Barever natural hair inhibitor, which includes papaya and other herbal ingredients, in reducing hair growth permanently when applied after hair removal.

This article describes the ancient technique of sugaring for hair removal, highlighting its effectiveness in achieving hairless and exfoliated skin and noting its cost-effectiveness and practicality.

This study analyzed the swelling behavior of human hair during permanent waving treatment, finding that both the microstructure and macrostructure of intermediate filaments swell simultaneously at the initial stage, and while partially destructed by reduction, they are considerably restored through oxidation.

In this study, BECD-treated wavy hair showed reduced undulation and improved straightening after drying, as BECD enhanced the contraction and rearrangement of molecular chains in non-keratin proteins, unlike untreated hair, which retained its wavy structure.

This study found that African and Caucasian hair contain the most lipids, and depletion of these lipids leads to less water retention and increased water desorption, with Caucasian hair showing improved breaking tenacity after lipid extraction.

This case study highlights that sarcoidosis lesions can occur following hair removal by waxing, emphasizing the need to consider superficial traumas as potential triggers for cutaneous sarcoidosis.

This review discusses various hair removal methods and highlights that most research is limited to darker hair and fairer skin, suggesting a need for studies on light-colored hair; it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses insights into the role of lipase H in controlling hair form and texture, emphasizing genetic mutations linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, and reports no new experimental results.

This study found that permanent waving treatment partially disrupts the α-helical structure in human hair microfibrils, primarily during the initial reduction phase, rather than just affecting disulphide bonds.

This study found that using an overnight peel treatment for 3 months increased wrinkle spacing, leading to an average reduction in wrinkles of 39% in 67% of participants.

This study observed that in Japanese females, hair lipid composition showed significant correlations, suggesting CH and CERs may act as a barrier against sebum-derived lipids.

This case report presents a rare instance of Winer's dilated pore in a 51-year-old female, emphasizing its pathological features and the need for accurate differential diagnosis to avoid misinterpreting it for more serious conditions.

This study identified that the Wave complex proteins ABI1 and Wave2 play a crucial role in regulating epidermal shape and growth during skin development, notably influencing SOX9 expression and Wnt signaling pathways.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy with argon sputter etching visualizes hair lipids at the cell membrane complex as distinctive convex structures, shedding light on their role and localization in human hair.
