5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Enhancing properties of damaged hair through moisture control via construction of highly hydrophobic surface
A silicone treatment makes damaged hair more water-resistant and stronger.
research Raman spectroscopic analysis of L‐phenylalanine and hydrolyzed eggwhite protein penetration into keratin fibers
L-phenylalanine and hydrolyzed eggwhite protein deeply penetrate human hair.
research pH Dependence of the Coiled-Coil Structure of Keratin Intermediate Filament in Human Hair by 13C NMR Spectroscopy and the Mechanism of Its Disruption
Keratin structure in hair is stable at pH 5-6 but disrupts between pH 6-7.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Hair Pores Caused by Surfactants via the Cell Membrane Complex and a Prevention Strategy through the Use of Cuticle Sealing

Peptides like TB500, KPV, GHK-CU, and BPC-157 are overhyped for hair growth with limited proven effectiveness in humans. Combining peptides with delivery methods like iontophoresis and sonophoresis shows promise, but many claims remain unproven.
community Helicobacter's concocted serum v1
A custom-made serum based on double-blind studies for AGA, which includes natural ingredients such as rosemary oil, procyanidin B-2, saw palmetto extract, curcuma aeruginosa, pumpkin seed oil and castor oil. The user has updated their recipe to include apple poly procyanidin B-2 4% concentration and other ingredients before topping it off with Pura d'or serum.
community Hydrophobic Finasteride. Why don’t we have it?
The conversation discusses the potential benefits of creating a hydrophobic version of finasteride to reduce systemic side effects while maintaining scalp health. It compares this idea to fluridil, which is designed to be hydrophobic and has less systemic absorption.
community Why is dutasteride's volume of distribution so much bigger than finasteride? Is it more lipophilic and crosses barriers better?
Dutasteride has a larger volume of distribution than finasteride due to its lipophilic nature, allowing it to concentrate in hydrophobic areas and making it difficult to excrete. A user experiencing hair loss has been using oral finasteride for 10 months with minimal regrowth and is considering switching to dutasteride or adding oral minoxidil.
community Stacking Fluridil / Topilutamide with other + aqueous topicals?
The conversation discusses how to use fluridil/topilutamide with other hair loss treatments like liquid minoxidil and CB-03-01, considering fluridil's hydrophobic nature and potential degradation with water. The user questions the necessity of washing hair only once per week as suggested by the manufacturer.
