Commercial clays in cosmetic formulations for hair care: Characterization and application to improve the mechanical properties of hair fibre

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 549-561, June 2026.
The shampoo and conditioner bar formulations enhanced hair gloss, promoting softness, improved cuticle alignment, and effective protection of hair shafts against external aggressors. Findings from mechanical properties measurements indicate that the clay‐containing formulations enhance the mechanical strength of hair, contributing to stronger and more ...

Highly Trained Female Runners Show Greater Durability and Physiological Resilience Than Performance‐Matched Male Counterparts

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Endurance performance determinants are typically assessed under fresh conditions, although physiological and mechanical characteristics deteriorate during prolonged exercise, a phenomenon recently termed durability or resilience. However, it is unclear whether durability and mechanisms underpinning it differ between sexes.

Streaming potential analysis of hair variation: Ethnicities and environmental exposures

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 230-242, April 2026.
Ethnicity and weathering shape electrokinetic behaviour and particle deposition in hair. ζ‐potential magnitudes ranked Caucasian > Indian > Chinese with no significant root‐tip variations. Deposition patterns generally correlate with ζ‐potential but differ by ethnicity, implicating other factors.

Reinventing henna: Enzyme‐catalysed colour release from stabilized Lawsonia inermis L. extracts

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 310-326, April 2026.
The instability and reduced dyeing performance of a cosmetic formulation containing 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone (lawsone), derived from Lawsonia inermis L., is demonstrated in comparison to a novel two‐component system. This system comprises one formulation with naturally occurring lawsone precursors and a second containing a specific hydrolase ...

Text and Topos: British Travellers to Real‐and‐Imagined Classical Sites, c. 1560–1820

open access: yesHistory, Volume 110, Issue 393, Page 588-605, December 2025.
Abstract Early‐modern British travellers to the Mediterranean often understood their journeys through the lens of classical texts and culture. Historians sometimes explain this as an imaginative phenomenon: travellers’ preconceptions shaped by classical knowledge guided their subsequent comprehension and activity.

Development of the Hair & Scalp CARE questionnaire: Measuring the impact of hair and scalp issues on psychological wellbeing in healthy populations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 47, Issue 5, Page 807-819, October 2025.
The Hair & Scalp CARE questionnaire is a validated tool for assessing the impact of hair and scalp condition on psychological wellbeing. The present data also suggest greater hair and scalp wellbeing is linked to lower levels of perceived stress and good sleep health.

Evaluation of potential irrigation water savings by assessing the soil water balance in a vineyard in central Chile

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 316-331, February 2025.
Abstract The main aim of this study was to evaluate the potential savings of irrigation water by assessing the soil water balance during the growing season in a wine vineyard in the Maule region, Chile. This study provides insights into the influences of different irrigation water applications on soil water status and its potential effects on grape ...

Influence of particle parameters on deposition onto healthy and damaged human hair

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 47, Issue 1, Page 58-72, February 2025.
This study utilized streaming potential to explore particle affinity to hair, considering factors, such as zeta potential, size, and hydrophobicity. Smaller particles deposited better than bigger particles. Neutrally charged particles were found to deposit best on both healthy and damaged hair while positively charged particles deposited the fastest at

Hair fragility (trichorrhexis nodosa) in alopecic Pomeranian dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 64-73, February 2025.
Background – Alopecia associated with hair cycle arrest (HCA, Alopecia X) is well‐recognised in Pomeranian dogs. The authors are unaware of reports of hair fragility in affected dogs. Hypothesis/Objectives – Following the observation of frequent hair shaft abnormalities in alopecic Pomeranians, we hypothesised that hair fragility events would be more ...

Optical evaluation of internal damage to human hair based on second near‐infrared window polarization microscopy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 850-864, December 2024.
A second near‐infrared (NIR) window microscope with circularly polarized optics noninvasively visualizes the internal state of hair and quantitatively evaluates hair damage caused by bleaching, permanent waveing, LiBr treatment, and heating. This method has high potential as a standard evaluation tool in the hair care field.
