This study examined the thermal conductivity of human hair using the Modified Transient Plane Source method, highlighting how frequent thermal, mechanical, and chemical treatments can damage hair by weakening its structure, particularly through changes in keratin that reduce elasticity.

In this study, researchers used the Modified Transient Plane Source method to measure the thermal conductivity of human hair, highlighting that common heat treatments can damage hair structure by altering its protein composition, emphasizing the importance of understanding thermal properties to mitigate such damage.

In this study, researchers found that the concentrations of cetostearyl alcohol, shea butter, and coconut oil significantly affected the in vitro spreadability of heat protectants, suggesting that optimizing these components could improve product coverage and thermal protection on hair.

This review discusses the use of ceramic-coated flat irons for hair straightening and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight potential hair damage risks from improper use.

In this review, researchers discussed recent advances in nanotechnology for topical skin applications, highlighting how nanocarriers enhance skin penetration and targeting in treatments for diseases like melanoma and psoriasis, while acknowledging that the penetration mechanisms and health impacts of nanoparticles remain not fully understood.
