research The impact of COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown on chronic stress assessed by hair cortisol analysis via LC-MS/MS
Chronic stress increased after lockdown, especially in young adults and females.
research Coat condition, housing condition and measurement of faecal cortisol metabolites - a non-invasive study about alopecia in captive rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta)
Alopecia in captive rhesus macaques is affected by season, sex, age, housing, and stress, with complex links between stress hormones and hair loss.
research Predicting hair cortisol levels with hair pigmentation genes: a possible hair pigmentation bias
Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.

Washing hair with water or shampoo lowers cortisol levels in hair.
research Measurement of cortisol in human Hair as a biomarker of systemic exposure
Hair cortisol can be used to measure long-term stress exposure.
research Radiolabel validation of cortisol in the hair of rhesus monkeys
Hair cortisol can indicate long-term stress levels, but hair growth rate differences may affect accuracy.
