Özet

Background/purpose: Investigations on the mechanical properties of human hair are inadequate. This research explores the break force of anagen hair by forming criteria according to the diameter of hair, gender, age, strain, use of drugs and hair dyes and how these criteria affect the mechanical resistance of hair.
