research Effect of equilibrium pH on the structure and properties of bleach‐damaged human hair fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research How different is human hair? A critical appraisal of the reported differences in global hair fibre characteristics and properties towards defining a more relevant framework for hair type classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research High-throughput phenotyping methods for quantifying hair fiber morphology
Hair fiber shape and curvature are not significantly linked when ancestry is considered.
research High-throughput phenotyping methods for quantifying hair fiber morphology
Quantifying hair shape is better than using racial categories for understanding hair characteristics.
research The effect of relative humidity on the spreading of ethanol on human hair fibers
Ethanol spreads well on hair at low humidity but less so at higher humidity due to water condensation.
research Microenvironmental reprogramming by three-dimensional culture enables dermal papilla cells to induce de novo human hair-follicle growth
Growing human skin cells in a 3D environment can stimulate new hair growth.
research The adsorption behavior of cationic surfactant onto human hair fibers
A certain surfactant sticks to human hair, making it change from water-repelling to water-attracting, which could help in hair conditioning.
research Analyzing the laser‐light reflection from human hair fibers. II. Deriving a measure of hair luster
The conclusion is that a new method to measure hair shine was confirmed to match people's visual assessments.
research Morphological analysis of polymers on hair fibers by SEM and AFM
Polyquaternium 7® builds up on hair, improving its look and feel, and AFM is good for measuring these changes.
research Studies of light scattering from ethnic hair fibers
Different hair types from various ethnic groups affect hair shine due to characteristics like thickness and shape.
research Hair today, gone tomorrow: the degradation and conservation of archaeological hair fibers
Acidic sandy clay damages archaeological hair the most, while dry conditions preserve but make it brittle; silicone oil can help keep the hair flexible.
research Azimuthal Scattering from Elliptical Hair Fibers
Light scatters differently from elliptical hair fibers than from circular ones, and a new model better predicts this behavior, especially for shiny highlights.
research Titrated extract ofCentella asiaticaincreases hair inductive property through inhibition of STAT signaling pathway in three-dimensional spheroid cultured human dermal papilla cells
Centella asiatica extract may help promote hair growth by blocking a specific cell signaling pathway.
research Hair follicle characteristics and fibre production in South American camelids
South American camelids should be sheared early, fleece type affects fiber quality, and the S/P follicle ratio doesn't distinguish between Bolivian llama genotypes.
research Artificial Hair Fiber Restoration in the Treatment of Scalp Scars
Artificial hair fibers help treat scalp scars with few complications and a 20% yearly fiber fall rate.
research Artificial Hair Fiber Restoration in the Treatment of Scalp Scars
Artificial hair fibers help treat scalp scars with few complications and a 20% yearly fiber fall rate.
research Comparative Proteomics Indicates That Biosynthesis of Pectic Precursors Is Important for Cotton Fiber and Arabidopsis Root Hair Elongation
Pectin biosynthesis is essential for the growth of cotton fibers and Arabidopsis root hairs.
research Tensile properties of twisted hair fibers
Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.
research Repair of damaged hair protein fiber by jointly using transglutaminase and keratin
Using an enzyme and keratin treatment can significantly repair and strengthen damaged hair.
research Enhanced ectodysplasin-A receptor (EDAR) signaling alters multiple fiber characteristics to produce the East Asian hair form
A genetic change in the EDAR gene causes the unique hair traits found in East Asians.
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 Assessment of Poplar Seed Hair Fibers as a Potential Bulk Textile Thermal Insulation Material
Poplar seed hair fibers could be an eco-friendly insulation for textiles.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research Human pollution exposure correlates with accelerated ultrastructural degradation of hair fibers
Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.
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 Microscopic high-resolution digital volumetric imaging of human hair fibers
DVI provides detailed 3D imaging of hair and shows how various products protect and enhance hair.
research Wear characteristics of epoxy based hybrid composites reinforced with short hair fibers and glass micro spheres
Adding human hair fibers and glass micro-spheres to epoxy improves its wear resistance and strength.
research Impact of acid straightener's pH value in the hair fiber properties
Lower pH straighteners change hair more but weaken it.
research Investigating the internal structure of sheep wool hair fibre using new microscopic techniques
Curly wool has more orthocortex than straight wool.
