research Hair shedding in women: how much is too much?
The hair shedding scale accurately identifies abnormal hair shedding in women with long hair, with grades 5 and 6 indicating excessive shedding.
research Laser Hair Reduction and Removal
Laser hair removal is effective for dark hair but needs improvement for nonpigmented or fine hairs.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair

The document concludes that hair is complex, with a detailed growth cycle, structure, and clinical importance, affecting various scientific and medical fields.
research Hair evaluation methods: Merits and demerits
Different hair evaluation methods have their own pros and cons, and using multiple methods together is best for accurate hair loss diagnosis and tracking.
research Hair loss and herbs for treatment
Herbs can potentially treat hair loss by inhibiting a key enzyme and promoting hair growth, and deficiencies in zinc, biotin, and iron are linked to hair loss.
research Hair Biology
The document explains hair biology, the causes of hair loss, and reviews various hair loss treatments.
research A bald statement - Current approaches to manipulate miniaturisation focus only on promoting hair growth
The conclusion is that future hair loss treatments should target the root causes of hair thinning, not just promote hair growth.
research The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
research Review of Human Hair Follicle Biology: Dynamics of Niches and Stem Cell Regulation for Possible Therapeutic Hair Stimulation for Plastic Surgeons
Understanding hair follicle biology and stem cell control could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research How to Diagnose and Treat Medically Women with Excessive Hair
Treating excessive hair in women requires a holistic approach, including medical, aesthetic, and emotional support.
research Histopathology of Scarring and Nonscarring Hair Loss
The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of tissue samples and understanding of clinical symptoms.
research Topical finasteride for the treatment of male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: a review of the current literature
Topical finasteride helps regrow hair and reduce hair loss in men and women.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
research Hair characteristics and androgenetic alopecia in Koreans
Korean hair is typically thicker with a slower growth rate, and treatments like Dutasteride are effective for male pattern hair loss without major side effects.
research Placebo‐controlled dose‐effect studies with topical minoxidil 2% or 5% in male‐patterned hair loss treated with oral finasteride employing an analytical and exhaustive study protocol
Minoxidil 5% works better than 2% for hair growth in male-patterned hair loss.
research Long‐pulsed ruby laser‐assisted hair removal in male‐to‐female transsexuals
Long-pulsed ruby laser effectively reduces hair in male-to-female transsexuals.
research Nonscarring hair loss disorders
Most types of hair loss can regrow naturally, but there are no effective cures for male pattern or age-related hair loss, and only limited options for females.
research Managing the PCOS-Related Symptoms of Hirsutism, Acne, and Hair Loss
Birth control pills and anti-androgen medications help manage hair growth, acne, and hair loss in women with PCOS.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research Hair counts in scalp biopsy of males and females with androgenetic alopecia compared with normal subjects
AGA patients have fewer hairs and smaller follicles; T:V ratio above 4:1 may indicate AGA.
research Light microscopy of the hair: A simple tool to "untangle" hair disorders
Light microscopy is useful for diagnosing different hair disorders.
research Miniaturized hairs maintain contact with the arrector pili muscle in alopecia areata but not in androgenetic alopecia: A model for reversible miniaturization and potential for hair regrowth
Miniaturized hairs stay connected to muscle in alopecia areata, allowing possible regrowth, but not in androgenetic alopecia.
research Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal works well for people with dark hair and light skin, but it's less effective for light hair or dark skin; improvements are expected.
