    technique selectively removes specific layers for detailed analysis

    Differential Stripping is a technique used in the study of hair and skin to selectively remove specific layers or components. This method allows researchers to analyze the structure and composition of different layers, such as the cuticle, cortex, and medulla in hair, or the epidermis and dermis in skin, to better understand their individual properties and functions.
