research What women want - quantifying the perception of hair amount: an analysis of hair diameter and density changes with age in caucasian women
Caucasian women's hair appears thickest in their 20s, with perceived thinning after mid-30s due to both decreasing density and diameter.
research Number changes and development potential of wool follicle cells in the early stages of fiber differentiation
Wool follicle cells are more complex than previously thought.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Dissecting hair breakage in alopecia areata: the central role of dysregulated cysteine homeostasis
Disrupted cysteine metabolism may cause hair breakage in Alopecia Areata, suggesting potential treatments like N-acetylcysteine.
research Hair follicle culture—a historical perspective
Advancements in hair follicle culture have led to better understanding and potential treatments for hair loss.
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 ANNOUNCEMENTS
A woman with lupus had hair loss and skin issues that were successfully treated with medications.
research The proteomics of wool follicles
Proteomics helps understand protein changes in wool fiber development.
research Induction of hair follicle dermal papilla cell properties in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived multipotent LNGFR(+)THY-1(+) mesenchymal cells

research Monitoring of Wool Stretching Process Using Polarized Second Harmonic Generation
Stretching wool changes its structure and improves fiber alignment.
research Delipidisation of wool fibres and the subsequent beneficial properties of delipidised wool fibres
Delipidised wool is brighter, dyes better, and is more eco-friendly.
research Retinoic-Acid-Related Orphan Receptor Alpha Is Involved in the Regulation of the Cytoskeleton of Hair Follicle Stem Cells
RORA affects hair follicle stem cells' structure and movement, potentially helping treat hair loss.
research The Retinoic-Acid-Related Orphan Receptor Alpha May Be Highly Involved in the Regulation of Seasonal Hair Molting
