research Reimagining Hair Science: A New Approach to Classify Curly Hair Phenotypes via New Quantitative Geometrical & Structural Mechanical Parameters
A new system for classifying curly hair types using precise measurements can improve hair care products and cultural inclusion.
research Fleece traits and important physical properties of hair fibers in lori goats.
Adding bentonite clays to goat diets increased milk yield, periwinkle shell improved chicken egg production, and vaccination increased muscle area and carcass yield in calves.
research Penetration of different molecular weight hydrolysed keratins into hair fibres and their effects on the physical properties of textured hair
Different sizes of keratin peptides can strengthen hair, with smaller ones possibly increasing volume and larger ones repairing damage.
research Carbonylation of hair proteins: A robust biomarker of molecular and structural oxidative damage in hair fibres
Protein carbonylation is a sensitive marker for oxidative damage in hair, especially from light exposure.
research Structure and Mechanical Properties of Human Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filament Protein
Disulfide bonds make keratin in hair stronger and tougher.
research Three‐dimensional imaging and analysis of the surface of hair fibres using scanning electron microscopy

research Gray Hair and Hair Strengthening: A Professional Guide for Hairdressers and Colorists
Gray hair requires special coloring techniques and care to maintain quality and strength.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
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 Structural investigation on damaged hair keratin treated with α,β-unsaturated Michael acceptors used as repairing agents
Treatments improved hair surface and scale structure but didn't increase certain bonds in the hair cortex.
research Quantifying whole human hair scalp fibres of varying curl: A micro‐computed tomographic study
Human hair varies in structure based on curl type, with high curl hair showing the most differences.
research Hair Keratin Associated Proteins: Characterization of a Second High Sulfur KAP Gene Domain on Human Chromosome 2111In fond memory of Dr Peter Steinert.
A second domain of high sulfur KAP genes on chromosome 21q23 is crucial for hair structure.
research A modular modeling approach for investigating wool critical buckling from biologically variable along-fiber microstructure
The model helps understand how wool fiber structure affects its strength and flexibility.
research Physico-chemical properties of modern cosmetics for styling and their effect on hair structure
Modern hair styling products don't repair hair but improve its surface and stability.
research Admixture in Latin America: Geographic Structure, Phenotypic Diversity and Self-Perception of Ancestry Based on 7,342 Individuals
The study found that in Latin America, ancestry varies by location, influences physical traits, and affects how people perceive their own heritage.
research In situ tensile deformation characterization of human hair with atomic force microscopy
AFM helped show how hair changes under tension and the effects of damage and conditioner.
research Hair Follicles Guide Nerve Migration In Vitro and In Vivo in Tissue-Engineered Skin
Hair follicles help guide nerve growth, improving touch recovery in skin grafts.
research Human Hair and the Impact of Cosmetic Procedures: A Review on Cleansing and Shape-Modulating Cosmetics
Future hair cosmetics will be safer and more effective.
research Variation in human hair ultrastructure among three biogeographic populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research The physical and chemical disruption of human hair after bleaching – studies by transmission electron microscopy and redox proteomics
Bleaching hair causes severe structural and chemical damage, including protein loss and oxidation.
research Chirality Effect on Physical and Biological Properties of Peptide-Based Hydrogels
Chirality influences the structure, strength, and biological uses of peptide-based hydrogels.

Certain small molecules and polymers can change hair's physical properties and how it feels by affecting the bonds within the hair.
research Physical characterization of the hair of Mexican women
Mexican women's hair is between Asian and Caucasian hair in thickness and shape, with varied strength and some damage.
research Internal structure changes in bleached black human hair resulting from chemical treatments: A Raman spectroscopic investigation
Chemical treatments on bleached black hair change its internal structure by breaking and reforming bonds, and treatments with hydrolyzed eggwhite protein help repair it.
research Effect of Temperature and Humidity on Mechanical Properties of Rabbit Hair Fibers
Higher temperatures improve rabbit hair strength up to 50°C, but moisture weakens it.
research Activated carbon fiber derived from the seed hair fibers of Metaplexis japonica: Novel efficient adsorbent for methylene blue
Activated carbon fibers from Metaplexis japonica seed hair are highly effective for removing the dye methylene blue from water.
research Investigation of human hair fibers using lateral force microscopy
