30 / 1000+ resultsresearch 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 Formation of surface membranes in developing mammalian hair fibres
Mature hair surfaces are formed by keratinized cells with developed layers, not just modified plasma membranes.
research Structural analysis of the outermost hair surface using TOF-SIMS with gas cluster ion beam sputtering
The hair's outermost surface has multiple layers of lipids and proteins.
research Age‐dependent changes in damage processes of hair cuticle
Older people's hair cuticles get more easily damaged and lose protective oils, especially in their 40s and 50s.
research Advances in the Chemical Structure of the Hair Surface, Surface Forces and Interactions
Understanding hair surface properties is key for effective hair care products.
research 286 Assessment of hair surface roughness by objective analysis
Hair care products used for 4 weeks made hair smoother.
research Effects of conditioners on surface hardness of hair fibers: an investigation using atomic force microscopy.
Conditioners with PQ-10 soften the flat part of hair cuticles but harden the edges.
research Magnetic coiffure: Engineering of human hair surfaces with polyelectrolyte-stabilised magnetite nanoparticles
Scientists made human hair magnetic by coating it with special nanoparticles.
research Analyzing the laser-light reflection from human hair fibers Part1: Light components underlying the goniophotometric curves and fiber cuticle angles
Hair color affects light reflection, with black hair having higher cuticle angles and lighter hair showing less specular reflection.
research The surface and internal features of pubic hair: A comparative study with those of scalp hair
Pubic hair has a thicker, more protective outer layer than scalp hair, possibly due to evolution.
research Three‐dimensional imaging and analysis of the surface of hair fibres using scanning electron microscopy
The new 3D imaging method accurately measures hair surface details quickly.
research The Effect of Intermediate Treatment Using Natural Polyphenol Cross-linker on Perming Efficiency and Hair Protection
Using natural polyphenol cross-linkers like tannic acid and green tea extract in perm treatments improves curling and protects hair.
research An ultrastuctural study of hair fiber damage and restoration following treatment with permanent hair dye
Permanent hair dye damages hair but it mostly recovers after 8 weeks; using certain hair care products can help repair it.
research Extractable substances from human hair: a discussion about the origin of the holes
Holes in mature hair are likely caused by the removal of substances during hair care.
research Quantifying the effects of repeated dyeing: morphological, mechanical, and chemical changes in human hair fibers
Repeated hair dyeing significantly damages hair.
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 Fermented grapeseed oil repairs chemically damaged hair via enhanced permeability mechanisms
Fermented grapeseed oil effectively repairs and protects chemically damaged hair.
research Perspectives on Hair Evolution Based on Some Comparative Studies on Vertebrate Cornification
Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.
research Discovery of a sol–gel reinforcing the strength of hair structure: mechanisms of action and macroscopic effects on the hair
A small molecule can strengthen fine hair, making it more resistant and natural-feeling.
research In-Situ Tensile Testing of Hair Fibers in An Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM)
Hair fibers break by cuticle cell slipping, shape changing, cuticle fraying, and surface cracking when stretched under specific conditions.
research Characterization of hair lipid and protein dynamics using EPR spectroscopy and treatment effects
Hair treatments and dehydration affect hair's lipid and protein behavior, influencing its flexibility and appearance.
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 Investigation of hair dye deposition, hair color loss, and hair damage during multiple oxidative dyeing and shampooing cycles.
Repeated dyeing and shampooing cause hair color loss and damage.
research Light scattering from human hair fibers
