Stiffness of Human Hair Correlates with the Fractions of Cortical Cell Types

Stiffness of Human Hair Correlates with the Fractions of Cortical Cell Types

(1) Background: The objective of this work was to elucidate the hair microstructure which correlates with the stiffness of human hair fibers. (2) Methods: Bending moduli of hair fibers were evaluated for the hair samples from 156 Japanese female subjects. Hair transverse sections were dual-stained w...
