research Hair resistance to mechanical wear
Hair's resistance to wear varies by ethnicity and treatment, with less wear indicating stronger hair.
research Crystallin Fusion Proteins Improve the Thermal Properties of Hair
Fusion proteins can protect hair from heat damage.
research Impact of ultraviolet radiation‐induced damage to hair fiber integrity: A multi‐technique physicochemical characterization of surface and cortex properties
This study investigates the impact of ultraviolet (UV) radiation on hair fiber integrity, comparing it to the effects of bleaching. It simulates solar radiation damage over a Brazilian summer and finds that UV exposure causes cuticular damage similar to bleaching, with increased cystic component oxidation and decreased hydrophobicity. After 192 hours of UV exposure, hair shows significant mechanical degradation, with reduced force at 20% elongation and elongation at break, indicating more pronounced damage than chemical oxidation alone. However, the structural protein degradation from double bleaching is more severe than that from UV radiation, despite comparable enthalpy changes after 192 hours of UV exposure.
research Molecular elements of the regulatory control of keratin filament modulator AHF/trichohyalin in the hair follicle
The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.
research Cryogelation of human hair keratins
Human hair keratins can be turned into useful 3D biomedical scaffolds through a freeze-thaw process.

An 18-year-old male's successful hair regrowth after three months of using finasteride 1mg daily. He reported no side effects and other users expressed admiration and curiosity about his results.
community Kintor has announced the results for their human Phase I trials of GT20029
The conversation discusses the potential of a new hair loss treatment, GT20029, which may prevent hair loss by destroying androgen receptors on the scalp. Users express hope for the treatment's success and speculate on its usage routine, effectiveness, and possible side effects.
community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.
Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.
community How to deal with mechanically induced shedding
Minoxidil can cause scalp dryness and flaking, leading to hair shedding when exfoliating. Alternatives like oral Minoxidil, finasteride, and ketoconazole shampoo are suggested to manage these issues.
community Funny Encounter With a Mechanic - Hair Loss Update
The user has been taking 3.75mg of finasteride weekly for 8 months, which has improved their hairline and hair texture. They shared a humorous encounter with a bald mechanic who complimented their hair, unaware of the finasteride use.
