research Reimagining Hair Science: A New Approach to Classify Curly Hair Phenotypes via New Quantitative Geometrical & Structural Mechanical Parameters
New methods to classify curly hair types were developed based on shape and strength.
research Evaluation of Scalp Hair Density and Diameter in the Arab Population: Clinical Office-Based Phototrichogram Analysis
Arab hair is generally thicker but less dense compared to other ethnicities, affecting hair disorder diagnosis and treatment.
research Normal Hair Growth in Children
Children's hair grows in different types from before birth through puberty, with growth rates and characteristics varying by age, sex, and race.
research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research The hair follicle enigma
The document concludes that understanding hair follicles requires more research using computational methods and an integrative approach, considering the current limitations in hair treatment products.
research Genome-wide meta-analysis implicates mediators of hair follicle development and morphogenesis in risk for severe acne
Genetic variations affecting skin structure play a key role in severe acne.
research Getting under the skin of hair aging: the impact of the hair follicle environment
Aging scalp skin contributes to hair aging and loss, and more research is needed to develop better hair loss treatments.
research Mechanisms of impairment in hair and scalp induced by hair dyeing and perming and potential interventions
Hair dyes and perms can damage hair and scalp, but using interventions can reduce harm.
research Perspectives and Challenges of Hair Analysis
Hair is a complex organ, and understanding its detailed structure and growth phases is crucial for analyzing substances within it.
research Gender-linked differences in human skin
Male and female skin differ in many ways, which could lead to gender-specific skin treatments.
research Systems Approach to Human Hair Fibers: Interdependence Between Physical, Mechanical, Biochemical and Geometric Properties of Natural Healthy Hair
Hair properties are interconnected; a comprehensive, cross-disciplinary approach is essential for understanding hair behavior.
research Sequence and structure based assessment of non-synonymous SNPs in hypertrichosis universalis
Two specific SNPs in the TRPS1 gene cause excessive hair growth by altering the protein's structure.
research Distribution of Glycolipid and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Human Hair
Human hair has more unsaturated fats inside than on the surface, and certain lipids may help bind the outer and inner layers together.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Hair can't be reliably repaired once damaged; prevention and proper product use are key to maintaining hair health.
research Corneodesmosin: Structure, Function and Involvement in Pathophysiology
Corneodesmosin is essential for skin and hair health, and its dysfunction can lead to skin and hair disorders.
research No difference in the proteome of racially and geometrically classified scalp hair sample from a South African cohort: Preliminary findings
Hair protein composition is similar across different races and shapes.
research Hair Straightening
Hair straightening changes hair structure and can cause damage if done wrong, but improvements in the methods are expected to continue.
research External lipid function in ethnic hairs
African hair has the most lipids, while Caucasian hair is more hydrated and stronger.
research Insights on the Hair Keratin Structure Under Different Drying Conditions
Drying hair with a microfiber towel better maintains hair strength and structure than using a cotton towel or blow-drier.
