720-750 / 1000+ results research Hair Pores Caused by Surfactants via the Cell Membrane Complex and a Prevention Strategy through the Use of Cuticle Sealing
Surfactants damage hair, but sealing the cuticle can prevent this.
research 1299 Live imaging of keratin network in stratum granulosum reveals dynamic cytoskeletal changes during cornification in mice in vivo
The keratin network in mouse skin changes during cornification and affects the skin's protective barrier.
research 13B “Temporary” Scalp Micropigmentation (Trichopigmentation)
Temporary scalp trichopigmentation creates a shaved hair look on the scalp using pigments that fade over time.
research Lipid loses and barrier function modifications of the brown‐to‐white hair transition
White hair has less lipid content and absorbs water differently than brown hair.
research Insights on the Hair Keratin Structure Under Different Drying Conditions
Drying hair with a microfiber towel better maintains hair strength and structure than using a cotton towel or blow-drier.
research Tensile properties of twisted hair fibers
Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.
research New aspects of the structure of human hair on the basis of optical microscopic observations of disassembled hair parts.
Human hair's strength comes from a honeycomb-like structure and macrofibrils.
research Natural ‘Green’ Sugar-Based Treatment for Hair Styling
Scientists created a non-toxic, sugar-based hair product that can style hair without damage.
research Tribological Properties between Taut Hair Fibers in Wet Conditions: A New Shampoo Formulation for Eliminating Stick‐Slip Friction
Shampoo B, which uses water-soluble silicone, is better at detangling hair in wet conditions due to its two-layer conditioning film.
research Novel insights into hair structure and the effects of chemical stressors on hair and skin using label-free advanced light microscopy
Chemical stressors damage hair structure but the skin's outer layer protects living cells.
research Wool Fibres: Sectioning and Staining, Differentiation of Ortho and Paracortex
research Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Analysis of Human Hair Fiber Structure
Human hair has different protein structures in its cuticle and cortex.
research A new staining method for visualization of keratin filaments in hair fibre cross sections.
A new method effectively visualizes keratin in hair without harsh chemicals.
research Cotton honeydew (Gossypium hirsutum L.) extract offers very interesting properties for hair cosmetics and care products.
Cotton honeydew extract improves hair smoothness and reduces damage.
research Rippled‐pattern trichomatricoma
A unique hair tumor with a rippled pattern was identified, showing incomplete differentiation and unusual cell arrangements.
research Restructuring skin equivalents with human hair follicle orscs and fibroblasts
A new method was developed to create better skin models for healing and reconstruction.
research Moisture as a Plasticity Switch in Blowouts: Glass-Transition Behavior, Viscoelastic Response, and Tension-Defined Shape
Moisture makes hair flexible for reshaping during blowouts.

Cosmetic residues on individual hairs can be identified and differentiated using ATR FT-IR microspectroscopy.
research Characterization of a new tissue-engineered human skin equivalent with hair
research Characteristic Microstructure of Curved Human Hair
Curved human hair has different structures on each side, which might cause its shape and is similar to wool.
research Hair today, gone tomorrow: the degradation and conservation of archaeological hair fibers
Acidic sandy clay damages archaeological hair the most, while dry conditions preserve but make it brittle; silicone oil can help keep the hair flexible.
research Structural analysis of the outermost hair surface using TOF-SIMS with gas cluster ion beam sputtering
The hair's outermost surface has multiple layers of lipids and proteins.
