990-1000 / 1000+ resultsresearch Impact of acid (”progressive brush”) and alkaline straightening on the hair fiber: Differential effects on the cuticle and cortex properties
Glyoxylic acid straighteners cause more protein loss but have similar hair strength effects as traditional alkaline straighteners.
research Effect of Protein 'Hair Straightener" on Hair Shaft by Scanning Electron Microscopy
Protein hair straighteners damage the hair more than hair dyes.
research Investigating the origins of nanostructural variations in differential ethnic hair types using X‐ray scattering techniques
Different ethnic hair types have unique nanoscopic and molecular features despite having the same basic keratin structure.
research Single Root hair growth under constant force: insights into wall mechanics
Root hair growth slows under force, confirming a model of cell wall mechanics.
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 Wool fiber curvature is correlated with abundance of K38 and specific keratin‐associated proteins
Wool fiber curliness is linked to the presence of certain proteins and K38.
research Relationship among Natures of Scalp Skin, Hair Follicle and Hair Shaft in Young Females.
Hair treatments can damage hair by changing its chemical content.
research EXPRESS: Structure Evolution in Hair Fibres During Strain and the Effect of Relative Humidity
Humidity affects hair structure changes during stretching.
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.
