research Autosomal-Dominant Woolly Hair Resulting from Disruption of Keratin 74 (KRT74), a Potential Determinant of Human Hair Texture
A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes tightly curled hair.
research Stiffness of Human Hair Correlates with the Fractions of Cortical Cell Types
Hair stiffness is higher when it has more para-like cortical cells.
research Plica Neuropathica in 2 Hispanic Patients
Two Hispanic women developed Plica neuropathica, a condition causing tangled hair, possibly due to hair damage and various risk factors.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research Pili Trianguli et Canaliculi Is a Defect of Inner Root Sheath Keratinization

research A homozygous missense variant in type I keratin KRT25 causes autosomal recessive woolly hair
A genetic variant in the KRT25 gene causes tightly curled hair.
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 Plica neuropathica: Bird's nest under dermatoscope
Plica neuropathica is a tangled hair condition that may be caused by hair damage or psychiatric issues and is treated by cutting the hair and addressing mental health.
research ‘Plica neuropathica’: Matting of Hair
A girl's severely tangled hair couldn't be fixed and had to be cut due to a rare condition called plica neuropathica.
research Hair tourniquet syndrome
Hair tourniquet syndrome is a rare condition where hair wraps around an infant's body part, needing quick removal to prevent damage.
research Tensile properties of twisted hair fibers
Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.
research EXPRESS: Structure Evolution in Hair Fibres During Strain and the Effect of Relative Humidity
Humidity affects hair structure changes during stretching.
research Hair dysplasias
Hair dysplasias involve various hair disorders causing fragility, breakage, and poor hair adhesion.
research A Missense Mutation within the Helix Initiation Motif of the Keratin K71 Gene Underlies Autosomal Dominant Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A specific gene mutation causes woolly hair and hair loss.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Bubble hair and other acquired hair shaft anomalies due to hot ironing on wet hair
Using a hot iron on wet hair can cause dry, brittle hair with air bubbles inside.
research Bubble hair
Bubble hair deformity may be caused by hair shaft trauma and can improve with gentle hair care.
research The twisting tale of woolly hair: a trait with many causes

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 X-rays studies of the structure of hair, wool, and related fibres. II. - The molecular structure and elastic properties of hair keratin
Stretched hair has a similar structure to natural silk, showing hair's elasticity involves reversible changes within its molecules.
