Dataset from the uniaxial tensile testing of human curly hair fibers under different conditions [PDF]

open access: yesData in Brief
Individual human hair fibers exhibiting a curly morphology were procured from a female donor within her early thirties (30s). The selected hair fibers donor had refrained from undergoing any form of chemical treatment, including dyeing, relaxing, and ...

Understanding Curly Hair Mechanics: Fiber Strength [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2020
The relationship between the geometric and mechanical profiles of hair fibers has been studied, with special focus on curly samples. Incidental observations pointed to a significantly different viscoelastic character with varying curliness. Further investigations confirmed initial observations, showing an initial distinct toe region behavior for curly ...

Experimental Investigation of Shrinkage of Nano Hair Reinforced Concrete [PDF]

open access: yesIranica Journal of Energy and Environment, 2013
Basically most of cement based mixtures are likely shrinking. Use of fibers is not a new idea in this case. Previously, there were some evidences that horse hair, straw and cotton fibers were used in mud and mortars in ancient times.

Flexabrasion Applied to the Evaluation of the Photodegradation of Hair Fibers

open access: yesCosmetics, 2021
Solar radiation is a significant source of damage to hair fibers. However, the instrumental measurement of the consequences of its interaction with hair fibers’ constituents remains a challenge. In this work, the flexabrasion methodology was investigated

A case of trichorrhexis nodosa

open access: yesPifu-xingbing zhenliaoxue zazhi, 2022
We report a case of trichorrhexis nodosa. A 27-year-old female presented with white nodules of hair that were easily broken for 17 years. Dermatological examination showed that the hair was sparse, dry, and there were many tiny granular white nodules ...

Facile and Efficient Enzymatic Methods for Harvesting or Removal of Cuticle Cells from Human Hair Shafts

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Human hair fibers are structurally organized as a cortex protected by an outer scaly sheath (cuticle). Developing methods to isolate these two compartments will help to elucidate their roles in hair biology and develop potential applications.
