research Effects of melatonin administration to cashmere goats on cashmere production and hair follicle characteristics in two consecutive cashmere growth cycles
Melatonin improved cashmere production in goats during the first cycle but had no lasting effects on the next cycle.
research Theoretical considerations in laser hair removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.

A mouse model was created to study hair loss similar to humans.
research Synthesis and Validation of Functional Nanogels as pH-Sensors in the Hair Follicle
Scientists created tiny pH-sensing gels that can safely measure the pH levels inside hair follicles.
research Hair-Growth-Promoting Effects of Fermented Red Ginseng Marc and Traditional Polyherb Formula in C57BL/6 Mice
Fermented red ginseng and a traditional herb mix improved hair growth in mice.
research Nudging hair shedding by antidandruff shampoos. A comparison of 1% ketoconazole, 1% piroctone olamine and 1% zinc pyrithione formulations
All three shampoos reduced dandruff and hair loss, but ketoconazole and piroctone olamine also made hair thicker.
research Effects of Sex Steroid Deprivation/Administration on Hair Growth and Skin Sebum Production in Transsexual Males and Females
Hormone treatments in transsexual individuals reduce hair growth and oil production in male-to-females and increase them in female-to-males.
research Improving stable isotopic interpretations made from human hair through reduction of growth cycle error
The conclusion is that recognizing hair growth cycles can improve the precision of dietary and health assessments from hair analysis.
research A novel cosmetic approach to treat thinning hair
A new hair treatment with caffeine and other ingredients makes hair thicker and less likely to break.
research A clinico-trichoscopic analysis of hair density and diameter variability in relation to severity grading of female pattern hair loss
Trichoscopic measurements help determine the severity of female pattern hair loss.
research The Art of Repair in Surgical Hair Restoration Part I
The best results in surgical hair restoration come from careful techniques, optimal use of limited hair supply, correct hair direction, saving hair for key areas, understanding scarring effects, and adjusting hair graft density.
research The growth of human hair
Human hair growth involves active, resting, and intermediate phases, and examining plucked hairs can teach students about hair biology and diseases.
research Sequence Variation in Caprine KRTAP6-2 Affects Cashmere Fiber Diameter
Different versions of the KRTAP6-2 gene in goats can lead to thinner cashmere fibers.
research Bioengineering of Hair Follicle-like Structure for Validation of Hair Growth Promoting Compounds
The method can test hair growth products using a lab-made hair-like structure that responds to known treatments.
research Discovery of genes and proteins possibly regulating mean wool fibre diameter using cDNA microarray and proteomic approaches
Researchers identified genes and proteins that may influence wool thickness in sheep.
research Investigation of oral finasteride enhanced occipital hair diameter index in different types of male androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride made hair thicker on the back of the head in men with hair loss.
research The development and validation of the hair shedding visual scale for Asian women (HSVS‐A)
The HSVS-A is an effective tool for quickly screening hair shedding in Asian women.
research Deciphering the cellular landscape and genetic underpinnings of fiber diameter determined by dermal papilla cells in fine-wool sheep

research Contrast enhanced phototrichogram (CE-PTG): an improved non-invasive technique for measurement of scalp hair dynamics in androgenetic alopecia–validation study with histology after transverse sectioning of scalp biopsies.
CE-PTG is a better method for analyzing hair growth in androgenetic alopecia.
research The heart of the hair fiber: How the inner structure of the coat reflects adaptive variation across color, sex, age, and body region in dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius)
Camel hair structure, not color, helps camels stay cool in the desert.
