research Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors for the treatment of skin and hair disorders: a review of literature
JAK inhibitors show promise for treating skin and hair disorders but need more research on long-term safety and effectiveness.
research Evidence-based treatments for female pattern hair loss: a summary of a Cochrane systematic review
Minoxidil helps regrow hair in female pattern hair loss, but more research needed for other treatments.
research Scalp Reduction as an Adjunct to Hair Transplantation: Review of Relevant Literature and Presentation of an Improved Technique

research Polyclonal origin and hair induction ability of dermal papillae in neonatal and adult mouse back skin
Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase. These cells rarely divide, but their ability to shape tissue may contribute to their efficiency in inducing hair growth.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Hair Cosmetics: Dyes
Hair dyes can change hair color temporarily or permanently but may cause side effects like skin reactions and hair damage.
research A randomized blinded retrospective study: the combined use of micro-needling technique, low-level laser therapy and autologous non-activated platelet-rich plasma improves hair re-growth in patients with androgenic alopecia
Using micro-needling, low-level laser therapy, and platelet-rich plasma together significantly improves hair growth in people with hair loss.
research Female Adolescent Hair Disorders
Quick treatment of hair disorders in teenage girls is important because of the emotional effects.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
