The technique helps measure how hair styling ingredients affect hair's stiffness and flexibility.

New wig coating technique makes them more durable, UV resistant, and less static.

Animal hair fibers like wool and mohair are strong when dry, but vicuna fibers are very brittle.

Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.

Certain small molecules and polymers can change hair's physical properties and how it feels by affecting the bonds within the hair.

NaOH treatment improves hair strength and suitability for textiles.

The new test shows how hair treatments affect hair's bending stiffness by swinging a pendulum through hair fibers.

Treating hair with 1M sodium hydroxide increases its friction, making it better for small medical knots.

The new method can tell how hair fibers react to moisture after treatments.

Chemical modifications can alter hair's stability and flexibility, with hydrophobic interactions helping maintain structure in humid conditions.

Hair properties vary with age and ethnic origin.

Adding keratin to a mix of cow hair and plant-based plastic makes it stronger.

Higher temperatures improve rabbit hair strength up to 50°C, but moisture weakens it.
