In this study, treatment with aqueous KCN selectively converted disulfide bonds to monosulfide crosslinks in hair, leading to changes in microstructural properties and rubberlike elasticity under specific laboratory conditions.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
This study proposed a network model for the cross-linked structure of keratin-associated proteins in hair and wool fibers, suggesting notable differences between the two, potentially affecting hair fiber elasticity.
research Reduction mechanism of L‐cysteine on keratin fibers using microspectrophotometry and Raman spectroscopy
In this study, researchers found that L-cysteine interacted electrostatically with anionic ions on the surface of keratin fibers in human hair, reducing the rate of disulfide bond disconnection at pH 9.0.
research Raman spectroscopy and electronic microscopy structural studies of Caucasian and Afro human hair
This study found that excessive heat caused the most significant structural changes in hair from Caucasian and Afro samples, especially when combined with other treatments like bleaching and straightening.

community You would never even know - Matthew McConaughey
Matthew McConaughey likely maintains his hair using finasteride, minoxidil, hair transplants, and possibly a hair system. Products like Reginix or rosemary oil are not considered as effective as these treatments.
community Has anyone here actually tried Shiseido’s S-DSC hair regenerative treatment in Japan?
Shiseido's S-DSC hair regenerative treatment in Japan focuses on improving existing hair by thickening miniaturized follicles, not creating new ones. There is limited patient feedback and long-term data available.
community Shiseido's S-DSC Hair Multiplication Treatment in Japan Available to Foreign Citizens (not cheap)
Shiseido's S-DSC Hair Multiplication Treatment in Japan is available to foreigners but is expensive and not very effective. Despite past disappointments, there is hope for future treatments with more options in development beyond Minoxidil and Finasteride.
