research Effect of shampoo, conditioner and permanent waving on the molecular structure of human hair
Perming significantly changes hair's molecular structure, while shampoo and conditioner do not.
research Investigation of human hair fibers using lateral force microscopy
Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.
research Formation and Characterization of Hollow Microtubes by Thermal Treatment of Human Hair
Heating human hair creates hollow microtubes with smooth surfaces.
research Photoageing of Hair Fiber and Photoprotection
Sunlight damages hair, causing cuticle loss, protein changes, and discoloration.
research Photoaggravation of hair aging
Sunlight exposure ages hair, making it brittle, stiff, and dry.
research The expanding significance of keratin intermediate filaments in normal and diseased epithelia
Keratin proteins are increasingly recognized as important for cell health and are linked to many diseases.
research Preparation of human hair keratin/calcium alginate blend films
More human hair protein makes the films weaker and less clear.
research Application of an Enzymatic Method for Identifying Hair Treatments
The enzymatic method can effectively identify chemical treatments on hair.
research Loss of a homologous group of proteins in a dominantly inherited ectodermal malformation
Naked-mouse hair lacks certain proteins and has less soluble fibril.
research Cuticle damage and the tensile properties of human hair
Cuticle damage doesn't affect hair's tensile strength; the cortex is responsible for it.
research Filaggrin mutations as an archetype for understanding the pathophysiology of atopic dermatitis
Filaggrin mutations are linked to atopic dermatitis and help explain how genetics and environment affect the disease.
research Chemical and photo-oxidative hair damage studied by dye diffusion and electrophoresis.
Chemical treatments and light exposure damage hair proteins.

Using an enzyme and keratin treatment can significantly repair and strengthen damaged hair.
research Involucrin, but not filaggrin and Kdap mRNA, expression is downregulated in 3-D cultures of intact rat hair bulbs after calcium stimulation
Calcium reduces involucrin in rat hair bulbs but doesn't affect filaggrin and Kdap.
research Effect of thermal treatments on the structural change and the hemostatic property of hair extracted proteins
Heating hair proteins changes their structure and may improve their blood clotting ability.
