research Self‐organizing hair peg‐like structures from dissociated skin progenitor cells: New insights for human hair follicle organoid engineering and Turing patterning in an asymmetric morphogenetic field
Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.
research Hair care practices and structural evaluation of scalp and hair shaft parameters in African American and Caucasian women
African American women report more hair issues and use different hair care practices than Caucasian women, and have different hair and scalp characteristics.
research Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research Structural features of the α-type filaments of the inner root sheath cells of the guinea pig hair follicle
α-type filaments in guinea pig hair follicles have unique structural features.
research [Systemic therapy of diffuse effluvium and hair structure damage].

research In vivo formation steps of the hard α-keratin intermediate filament along a hair follicle: Evidence for structural polymorphism
Hair follicles form hard α-keratin filaments in four steps, showing structural differences.
research Review of the current understanding of the effect of ultraviolet and visible radiation on hair structure and options for photoprotection
UV radiation and visible light can damage hair, but there are ways to protect it.
research Changes in structure and geometric properties of human hair by aging
Older people's hair becomes less shiny because it gets more uneven and curved.

Rectangular black granules, solitary yellow dots, and mostly single-hair follicles suggest Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research The structural implications of water hardness metal uptake by human hair
Human hair absorbs calcium and magnesium from tap water, affecting its structure and styling properties.
