Nanotube-based hair treatments could improve hair health and growth, and offer long-lasting effects.
research Strain and Strain Recovery of Human Hair from the Nano- to the Macroscale
Human hair can almost fully recover its structure within about 1,000 minutes after being stretched.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Hot Topics in Pediatric Dermatology
Covers common skin issues in kids, their diagnosis, treatment, and need for specialist care.
research Responses to Dietary Supplementation With Field Bean in Production Indices, Mohair Growth and Hormonal Parameters in Transition Angora Goats
Field bean supplementation improved mohair growth and kid growth in Angora goats but didn't prevent weight loss after giving birth.
research Preparation and Characterization of Soluble Wool Keratin for Human Hair Care
CMADK reduces hair damage from bleaching and permanent waving.
research Fundamental Studies on the Interaction Between Moisture and Textiles. Part X. Moisture Sorption Properties of Wool and Hair Fibers
Wool and hair fibers absorb moisture similarly due to their keratin structure, with the amount of non-crystalline areas affecting the moisture uptake.
research Growth of Wool Follicles in Culture
Wool follicles can grow in a lab with the right nutrients and conditions.
research Efficient and Regulable Extraction of Keratin from Yak Hair Using Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquids
A new method using imidazole-based liquids efficiently extracts keratin from yak hair.
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 Biotechnology of Functional Proteins and Peptides for Hair Cosmetic Formulations
Future hair products will use ecofriendly proteins and peptides to improve hair health and appearance.
research Repair of Damaged Hair Protein Fiber by Jointly Using Transglutaminase and Keratin
Using an enzyme and keratin treatment can significantly repair and strengthen damaged hair.
research Brazilian Keratin Hair Treatment: A Review
Brazilian keratin treatments can straighten hair but may contain harmful formaldehyde.
research Reduction Mechanism of L-Cysteine on Keratin Fibers Using Microspectrophotometry and Raman Spectroscopy
L-cysteine slows down the breaking of bonds in hair due to electrostatic interactions.
research Reactive Keratin Derivatives: A Promising Strategy for Covalent Binding to Hair
Modified keratin binds better to hair, especially bleached hair.
research Unzipping the Cuticle of the Human Hair Shaft to Obtain Micron/Nano Keratin Filaments
Researchers extracted tiny keratin filaments from human hair by unzipping its outer layer.
research The Binding of Small Molecules and Polymers to Keratin and Their Effects on the Physicochemical and Surface Properties of Hair Fibers
Certain small molecules and polymers can change hair's physical properties and how it feels by affecting the bonds within the hair.
research The Structure of the Amorphous Matrix of Keratins
Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.
research Analysis of Heterogeneous Reaction Between Reducing Agents and Keratin Fibers Using Raman Spectroscopy and Microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
