research Evaluation and formulation of Spirulina platensis proteins for potential applications in hair care products
Spirulina proteins can improve hair smoothness and strength in hair care products.
research Bubble Hair and the Usefulness of Trichoscopy
Bubble hair damage is caused by high heat from styling tools, and trichoscopy helps diagnose it.
research Hair growth promoting activity of discarded biocomposite keratin extract
Keratin extract from human hair was found to promote hair growth in mice.
research Isolation and characterization of recombinant murine Wnt3a
Scientists successfully purified a protein called Wnt3a, which is involved in processes like hair growth, but the overall yield was low, suggesting more work is needed to improve this.
research Hair Weathering
