January 2017 in “Indian Journal of Dermatology Venereology and Leprology” This study found that while hair washed with hard water had higher magnesium deposits, it did not show significant structural surface changes compared to hair washed with soft water.
May 2026 in “The Scientific Issues of Ternopil Volodymyr Hnatiuk National Pedagogical University Series pedagogy” This study conducted a comprehensive analysis of methods for assessing surface roughness, highlighting that contact methods using profilometers provide accurate results for machine parts, while non-contact optical and laser methods offer high precision and efficiency without damaging surfaces.
November 2011 in “Advanced Materials Research” This study found that adding hair fibers to friction materials increased their friction coefficient stability and impact strength while decreasing wear rates, with 1% hair fiber content notably improving performance.
