Sudden hair & #8220;felting & #8221; during styling procedure: The puzzle is solved
Enas A. S. AttiaInternational Journal of Trichology 2022 14(6):210-212 Acute scalp hair “felting” is a rare acquired condition that presents with sudden severe twisting, entangling, and matting of scalp hair into a stiff tightly packed mass, in otherwise healthy individuals. In such conditions, the mechanism of hair matting is almost like the process of “felting” in wool and textile industry, where adjacent fibers are compacted together in a warm liquid medium. Herein, a case of acute hair “felting” during styling practice is discussed with the ...

Reversal of premature hair graying treated with a topical formulation containing & #945;-melanocyte-stimulating hormone agonist (Greyverse Solution 2 & #37;)
We present a case of a 25-year-old female with a history of graying of hair on the scalp. Clinical diagnosis revealed it as a case of premature graying/canities. She was prescribed a topical formulation (Greyverse solution) containing palmitoyl tetrapeptide 20, a biomimetic biopeptide of α-MSH for treating her PHG. The formulation was applied 1 mL twice daily directly on the affected part of the scalp. Hair supplements containing a combination of biotin and calcium pantothenate once daily orally were also prescribed.

Impact of acid ( & #8221;progressive brush & #8221;) and alkaline straightening on the hair fiber: Differential effects on the cuticle and cortex properties
Conclusion: The treatment with glyoxylic acid showed rupture tensile statistically equivalent to the alkaline straighteners. The mechanism of action of glyoxylic acid does not appear to be based on breaking and rearrangement of disulfide bridges, but altered them, that influenced the hair strength. However, it is also essential to consider other factors relevant: technical application technique, reaction time, and interval of reapplication of the product, as this can change the pattern of the results obtained.
