research Some Tensile Properties of Specialty Hair Fibers
Animal hair fibers like wool and mohair are strong when dry, but vicuna fibers are very brittle.
research Sustainable Biopolymer Based on Tung Oil and Tung Free Fatty Acids for Hair Tensile Enhancement
The TO-TF copolymer strengthens damaged hair effectively and sustainably.
research Regulation of hard α-keratin mechanics via control of intermediate filament hydration: matrix squeeze revisited
Hard α-keratins stay stiff in water because the surrounding matrix keeps them dehydrated and strong.
research Effect of equilibrium pH on the structure and properties of bleach‐damaged human hair fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research The 'self recovery phenomenon' of oxidized hair
Oxidized hair can naturally regain strength and stability over six months.
research Effect of anti-keratin antibody on the nature of hair
Anti-keratin antibody from cow milk makes damaged hair stronger and less likely to break.
research Analysis of Physical Properties of Bleached Hair Treated with Hair Manicure
Hair manicure improves the strength and condition of bleached hair.
research Investigating the relationship between the hair fiber proteome and hair quality
Hair quality is genetically determined and linked to its composition and strength.
research Protein disulphide isomerase-mediated grafting of cysteine-containing peptides onto over-bleached hair
PDI helps restore over-bleached hair's strength and structure by attaching special peptides.
research Enhancing properties of damaged hair through moisture control via construction of highly hydrophobic surface
A silicone treatment makes damaged hair more water-resistant and stronger.

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 Changes in the mechanical properties of human hair under various conditions
Hair coloring and chlorine change hair strength differently.
research Tensile properties of twisted hair fibers
Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.
research Quasi-Static Torsional Deformation of Single Hair Fibers: Application of a Modeling Approach and Results from Cosmetic Treatments.
The research found that twisting hair fibers can show changes in stiffness and damage, and help tell apart different hair treatments.
research Mechanical properties characterization of human hair fibers cortex region by multiparametric Atomic Force Microscopy mapping
The active ingredient improves the strength of damaged hair fibers.
research Effect of varied hair protein fractions on the gel properties of keratin/chitosan hydrogels for the use in tissue engineering
Different hair protein amounts change the strength of keratin/chitosan gels, useful for making predictable tissue engineering materials.
research Structural Abnormalities in the Hair of a Patient with a Novel Ribosomopathy
The patient's hair was thinner and had fewer lipids due to a genetic mutation.
research Morphological analyses in fragility of pili torti with Björnstad syndrome
Pili torti hair is fragile due to loose keratin filaments and weak disulfide bonds.
research Effect of ethnicity and treatments on in situ tensile response and morphological changes of human hair characterized by atomic force microscopy
Different ethnicities and treatments affect human hair strength and structure.
research TENSILE STRENGTH OF SCALP HAIR IN WOMEN WITH HAIR LOSS
Women with hair loss have weaker hair that breaks more easily.
research Improving Tensile Properties of Hair with a Natural Moisturizer
A natural moisturizer can make hair stronger.
research Single hair fiber assessment techniques to discriminate between mineral oil and coconut oil effect on hair physical properties
