research Tribological Properties between Taut Hair Fibers in Wet Conditions: A New Shampoo Formulation for Eliminating Stick‐Slip Friction
Shampoo B, which uses water-soluble silicone, is better at detangling hair in wet conditions due to its two-layer conditioning film.
research New aspects of the structure of human hair on the basis of optical microscopic observations of disassembled hair parts.
Human hair's strength comes from a honeycomb-like structure and macrofibrils.
research Charge density alterations in human hair fibers: an investigation using electrostatic force microscopy
The study found that a polymer treatment changes the charge on hair surfaces, making bleached hair smoother and less porous.
research Thermal and mechanical transitions in keratins and their relevance for hair cosmetics
High temperatures and cosmetic processes can damage hair keratin, affecting its structure and strength.
research Activation of the Notch pathway in the hair cortex leads to aberrant differentiation of the adjacent hair-shaft layers
Notch pathway activation causes abnormal hair layer development.
research A Study of Aggregation Structures and Tensile Properties of Hair Fibers
research Nanomechanical characterization of human hair using nanoindentation and SEM

Hair shape is determined by genetic, molecular, and cellular factors.
research Damage of hair fibers as evaluated by an electrical capacitance technique
research Hair Pores Caused by Surfactants via the Cell Membrane Complex and a Prevention Strategy through the Use of Cuticle Sealing
Surfactants damage hair, but sealing the cuticle can prevent this.
research The Ziering Whorl Classification of Scalp Hair
The conclusion is that creating natural-looking hair restoration requires replicating natural scalp whorl patterns and inserting grafts at specific angles.
research Ceramic flat irons: Improper use leading to acquired trichorrhexis nodosa
Improper use of ceramic flat irons can cause severe hair damage.
research Don’t Judge When the Tresses Fall
Matted hair should not be judged as a sign of mental instability; proper diagnosis and gentle care are key.
research A case of localized uncombable hair syndrome
A 4-year-old girl had a rare hair disorder affecting only part of her scalp.
research Prospective ultramorphological characterization of human hair by optical coherence tomography
OCT can identify hair structures, but chemical treatments can damage them.
research Hair-on-hair static friction coefficient can be determined by tying a knot B Biointerfaces
Treating hair with 1M sodium hydroxide increases its friction, making it better for small medical knots.

Coudability hairs are useful markers for alopecia areata activity.
research Improved two‐dimensional electrophoretic mapping of Japanese human hair proteins; application to curved and straight Japanese human hairs; and protein identification by MALDI MS and MS/MS quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry
The study found that minor protein differences between curved and straight Japanese hair are unlikely to significantly affect hair structure.
research Hair dysplasias
Hair dysplasias involve various hair disorders causing fragility, breakage, and poor hair adhesion.
research A novel method for visualizing hair lipids at the cell membrane complex: Argon sputter etching/scanning electron microscopy1
