October 2025 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science” The study explored how hair characteristics like shine, alignment, and volume influence perceptions of female age, health, and attractiveness. Conducted with 3,500 women from Germany, Spain, and the USA, it found that high-shine and straight-aligned hair were consistently rated as more youthful, healthy, and attractive, regardless of hair color or orientation. High volume negatively impacted these perceptions. The research highlights the significant role of hair shine and alignment over color in shaping social perceptions and suggests further studies on diverse hair types and ethnic groups. The study was funded by The Procter & Gamble Company.
