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 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 Environmental and Cosmetic Factors in Hair Loss and Destruction
Environmental and cosmetic factors, including heat, chemicals, and sun exposure, can cause hair loss and damage.
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 Mapping penetration of cosmetic compounds into hair fibers using time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF‐SIMS)
Different oils penetrate hair differently; monounsaturated oils like olive oil penetrate better than polyunsaturated oils.
research Characterization of the mechanical properties of the cortex region of human hair fibers by multiparametric Atomic Force Microscopy mapping
Atomic Force Microscopy is a more accurate way to assess hair damage and the effect of cosmetic treatments.
research Structural analysis of human hair single fibres by scanning microbeam SAXS
Hair curliness is due to uneven distribution of different cortices within the hair fiber.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research Kinetics and Equilibrium of Solute Diffusion into Human Hair
Hair absorbs molecules differently based on their size, charge, and love for water, and less at higher pH; this can help make better hair products.
research Biomechanics of hair fibre growth: A multi-scale modeling approach
The model shows that factors like follicle shape and stiffness are key for hair growth and anchoring.
research Shampoo, conditioner and hair washing
Dermatologists should learn more about shampoos to better treat hair and scalp issues.
research Antioxidant Properties of Platycladus orientalis Flavonoids for Treating UV-Induced Damage in Androgenetic Alopecia Hair
Platycladus orientalis flavonoids protect balding hair from UV damage and slow hair color change.
research Investigation of Some Amino Acid Analogues and Metabolites as Inhibitors of Wool and Hair Growth
Certain amino acid analogues can inhibit wool and hair growth and affect fiber strength.
research Protection and Restoration of Damaged Hair via a Polyphenol Complex by Promoting Mechanical Strength, Antistatic, and Ultraviolet Protection Properties
A new hair treatment using a natural polyphenol complex improves hair strength, reduces static, and protects against UV damage.
research Tissue engineering of human hair follicles using a biomimetic developmental approach
Researchers created human hair follicles using a new method that could help treat hair loss.
research Effects of EGF on the Morphology and Patterns of DNA Synthesis in Isolated Human Hair Follicles
EGF makes hair follicles grow longer but stops hair production.
research Cortical cell types and intermediate filament arrangements correlate with fiber curvature in Japanese human hair
Hair curvature in Japanese people is linked to specific cell types and filament arrangements in the hair cortex.
