New methods may change hair color and shape from the root, revolutionizing hair styling.
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 The Genomic Variation in Textured Hair: Implications in Developing a Holistic Hair Care Routine
Afro-textured hair needs specialized care due to its unique genetic and structural properties.
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 Variation in human hair ultrastructure among three biogeographic populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery
Various techniques and tools for hair restoration were presented in 1998, including a mathematical model for donor area, use of lasers in surgery, methods for controlling grafted hair direction, and ways to increase graft yield. Satisfaction rates were around 39%, and studies showed trauma and dehydration can damage hair follicles.
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 Changes of Curvature with Regain of Set Wool and Hair Fibers
Merino wool fibers change shape with moisture, while human hair shape stays the same.
research Reimagining Hair Science: A New Approach to Classify Curly Hair Phenotypes via New Quantitative Geometrical & Structural Mechanical Parameters
New methods to classify curly hair types were developed based on shape and strength.
research Tissue expansion for the surgical correction of complications caused by hair replacement fiber implants
Tissue expansion can fix scalp issues from hair implants.
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 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.
research Dyeing Behavior of Yak Hair Fiber Treated with Microwave Low Temperature Plasma
Microwave plasma treatment improves yak hair dyeing.
research Chemical and physical treatments damage Caucasian and Afro‐ethnic hair fibre: analytical and image assays
Chemical and physical treatments like bleaching, dyeing, and UV radiation damage both Caucasian and Afro-ethnic hair.
research Mechanism research of yak hair stretching slenderization based on the changes of conformation and cell shape
Yak hair stretches mainly due to macromolecules slipping past each other.
research Adverse reaction to isotretinoin: alteration of the hair shaft structure
Isotretinoin can rarely cause hair to grow curly.
research Use of hair pores to determine the orientation of collagen fibers in skin
A new method using hair pores can help align skin grafts better, improving results.
research Differential wetting characterization of hair fibers.
The new method can tell how hair fibers react to moisture after treatments.
research The kinetics of moisture sorption by hair
Hair absorbs moisture differently based on its structure and treatment, with changes occurring at 30% humidity.
research Human hair keratin network and curvature
Curly hair shape is due to uneven growth patterns in the hair follicle.
research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
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 Identification of the Ovine Keratin-Associated Protein 22-1 (KAP22-1) Gene and Its Effect on Wool Traits
The gene KAP22-1 affects wool yield and fiber shape in sheep.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
Hair and wool strength is affected by the number and type of bonds in their protein structures, with hair having more protein aggregates than wool.
research Direct Observation of Hair Components Involved in Formation of Permanent Waves
Microfibrils are key for permanent waves, and hydrolyzed keratin improves wave formation and hair condition.
