Abstract EN
The topography and frictional force of Asian black male and female hair cuticles at different locations are determined using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and friction force microscopy (FFM).
The frictional values, mapped for comparison with surface morphology, corresponded qualitatively with the structures’ plane surface characteristics.
The results indicate that the hair surface was damaged and modified at different temperatures and heating times.
The height of the female hair at a blowing temperature of 60°C after a duration of 2 min between the cuticle edge and cuticle surface was approximately 440–556 nm.
The adhesion phenomenon occurs on the hair surface and interface.
The cuticles do not vary after the heating; however, the hair damage sustained increases with serious deterioration.
