research Acquired uncombable hair
A 39-year-old woman developed uncombable hair syndrome after taking oral contraceptives.
research Biomechanics of hair fibre growth: A multi-scale modeling approach
The model shows that factors like follicle shape and stiffness are key for hair growth and anchoring.
research Fractal geometry and topology abstracted from hair fibers
Hair fibers have fractal patterns with properties related to the golden mean, which may affect their functionality.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Trichorrhexis Invaginata and Netherton’s Syndrome
Recognizing bamboo hair helps diagnose Netherton’s syndrome.
research Hair Loss in Children
Most hair loss in children is caused by a few common conditions, and it's important to diagnose these properly and support the child's mental health.
research Trichoscopic evaluation of non-marginal traction alopecia: A case series
Long hair can cause hair loss in the middle of the scalp, and cutting it shorter helps.
research A highly resistant structure between the cuticle and the cortex of human hair. II . CARB , a penetration barrier
CARB is a strong barrier in human hair that prevents dye penetration.
research From rare hypertrichosis to common alopecia: new pathways for hair regeneration
research A discrete transition zone between cuticle and cortex layers of a human hair fibre: changes observed in the presence of breast cancer

research Plica neuropathica causing traction alopecia
Cutting matted hair stopped further hair loss caused by homemade shampoo.
research 1390 Active hair growth is fuelled by conveyor-belt like differentiation of germinative layer cells
Hair growth is driven by cells that move and change like a conveyor belt.

The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of tissue samples and understanding of clinical symptoms.
research Alopecias
Different types of alopecia in children require specific diagnoses and treatments.
research Sequence analyses of Type I and Type II chains in human hair and epithelial keratin intermediate filaments: Promiscuous obligate heterodimers, Type II template for molecule formation and a rationale for heterodimer formation
Type I and Type II keratin chains can form heterodimers despite sequence differences.
