    GlossaryYoung's modulus (Elastic modulus)

    measures material stiffness by stress-to-strain ratio in elasticity

    Young's modulus, also known as the elastic modulus, is a measure of the stiffness of a material. It quantifies how much a material will deform under a given amount of stress. Specifically, it is the ratio of tensile stress (force per unit area) to tensile strain (proportional deformation) in the linear elasticity region of the material. This property is crucial in fields like materials science and engineering, as it helps predict how materials will behave under different forces.

      community MSM [Methylsulfonylmethane] ??

      in Treatment  6 upvotes 1 year ago
      Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is not a treatment for male pattern baldness but can accelerate hair growth and thicken miniaturized hairs, with the side effect of increased hair growth all over the body. The user asks others to share their experiences with MSM.

      community If sea salt spray makes thinning worse, then what?

      in Styling  8 upvotes 1 year ago
      Sea salt spray may not be ideal for thinning hair, and alternatives like texture powder, thickening tonic, and styling clay are suggested for volume without damage. Some users recommend thickening sprays or mousse for a fuller appearance, while others suggest considering medication for hair loss.
