research Effect of equilibrium pH on the structure and properties of bleach‐damaged human hair fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research Kinetics and Equilibrium of Solute Diffusion into Human Hair
Hair absorbs molecules differently based on their size, charge, and love for water, and less at higher pH; this can help make better hair products.
research The Interaction of Hair Fibers with Alkali Bromide Solutions
Hair absorbs alkali bromide salts and water, affecting its structure, with absorption decreasing at higher temperatures.
research Investigation of pH effect on cationic solute binding to keratin and partition to hair
Solute binding to hair keratin is mainly driven by hydrophobic interactions and changes with pH.

5 / 38 resultscommunity Napkin math: are we using 100x more topical finasteride than necessary?
Topical finasteride concentrations are likely much higher than necessary for effective follicular DHT suppression, with current standards being 100-1000 times above the theoretical minimum. Lower concentrations (0.001-0.0025%) might still work locally while minimizing systemic exposure.
community 7 months using Dutasteride Horror, before and after
The user experienced significant hair loss after starting dutasteride, despite improved libido and gym performance. They previously used finasteride but stopped due to side effects and are considering combining treatments or a hair transplant.
community Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to work in the scalp. Not weeks. Be careful.
Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to affect scalp DHT levels, not just a week. The prostate absorbs Dutasteride faster than the scalp due to different vascular networks and enzyme densities.
community Should I get transplant #4 or just shave my head?
A 36-year-old considering a fourth hair transplant is advised to either shave his head or use a hair system due to poor results from previous transplants and late medication use. He plans to consult top surgeons and adjust his current treatments, including finasteride and minoxidil.
community hairline resurrection — 2 months before/after [5mg oral minoxidil, 1mg finasteride everyday, 2% keto shampoo every three days, weekly 0.5mm dermarolling]
This conversation was about a user named Substantial_Pen_1099 who has been using an regimen of 5mg oral minoxidil, 1mg finasteride everyday, 2% keto shampoo every three days, and weekly 0.5mm dermarolling for hair loss treatment over the course of 3 months. Others in the conversation expressed disbelief at their progress, to which Substantial_Pen_1099 provided video proof as evidence.
