Of late, managing customers in the hair beauty industry has been difficult because customers are always looking for new things; therefore, a haircut with a new and creative design is required. This study provides basic data on haircuts.Methods: Hair on the top of the head was divided into three sections: golden-back medium point, back-point, and back-nape medium point. Hair on the upper part of the head was cut at 0°, 30°, and 60°, and the lower part of the head was cut at 45°; however, only the hair on the upper part of the head was used for length measurement.Results: The natural procedure angle of 0° represents smooth and straight textures. In addition, the volume, weight, and expansion increase with the area. Smooth and coarse textures exhibited fine layers at 30° and natural layers at 60° simultaneously. The parallel line becomes straight; further, the A (diagonal) and the V (diagonal) lines elongate and shrink toward the face line, respectively.Conclusion: The right angle line asymmetry cut can provide freshness, liveliness, and rhythm feeling through unbalance. In addition, the length of the right side increases, resulting in a heterogeneous effect. In the future, the volume cut and length changes will be studied based on the jawline, neckline, and clavicle.","PeriodicalId":8508,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Beauty and Cosmetology","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90458280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ceramide neosynthesis was measured by chromatography in topically-treated human skin explants. Production of essential proteins was monitored in primary cell cultures: Chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronic acid in fibroblasts, using chromatography; hyaluronic acid in keratinocytes, using ELISA. In vivo, epidermal microrelief, skin capacitance and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) were measured on 25 female volunteers with dry skin. Skin capacitance and TEWL were also measured, on hands, comparing hydroalcoholic gels.Results: XAX increased the expression of key moisturizing-related genes, such as enzymes, structural components or regulators of inter-keratinocytes junctions, cornified layer, desquamation process, as well as skin barrier function and hydration. It also increased the contents of ceramides, hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate. In vivo, XAX treatment at 3% decreased TEWL and increased skin capacitance, skin microrelief and desquamation. The combination of XAX+glycerin (1.5%+1.5%) showed interesting effects compared to glycerin alone.Conclusion: XAX promoted effects on the biological pathways involved in skin barrier function; epidermal and dermal water reserves; and epidermal water circulation. Its effectiveness, confirmed in vivo, alone and in combination with glycerin, makes it an interesting alternative to basic emollients, humectants and occlusives.","PeriodicalId":8508,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Beauty and Cosmetology","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84808369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 230 questionnaires were distributed, and 200 effective questionnaires were used in the final data analysis. The collected data were analyzed with frequency analysis, factor analysis, descriptive statistical analysis, and repeated measures analysis of variance using the SPSS 21.0 program.Results: An analysis of the questionnaires applied to makeup majors found that the expectation of usability in makeup education according to technological development increased equally in the order of VR, AR, and MR. The realistic expectations of the makeup application education from VR to MR increased in three groups, and expectations were particularly high in the case of AR and the utilization of MR in makeup education based on it.

Furthermore, this research aimed to understand the variations in design form based on the slice line, present a sample of the cut design, and provide basic data for haircuts.Methods: The upper head was divided in to three areas by from the center point to the golden back medium point-then ear back point, from the center point to the back point-then ear back point, and from the center point to the back nape medium point- then ear back point. The upper head angle was 45° and the slice line adopts A line, parallel line, and V line. The upper and lower head angles were 110°, 130°, and 150°.Results: A line and V line became more distinct toward the face line, while the parallel line appeared flatter. There was no weight line in the incremental layer cut, and there was no noticeable difference in the change according to the angle in the concave stretched shape. When dividing the head area, the length was shortened when the starting point of the upper part was placed upward and lengthened when it was placed downward. The medium gradient cut appeared on the edge of the weight without falling hair on the same line.Conclusion: A line exhibited increased volume, weight, and expansion, while V line showed a decrease in these factors but an increase in volume, rhythm, and vitality. A line was observed to be mature and thin, while V line was cute and sporty, and the parallel line was plain and neat. Even with the same slice line, the length varied based on the segmentation of the head region. The head division, slice line, and angle should be selected based on the customer's head shape, face shape, and taste.","PeriodicalId":8508,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Beauty and Cosmetology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86001223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The antibacterial effect did not show strong antibacterial activity against gram-negative bacteria, yeast and fungi as a whole, but it showed excellent antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria. Dendranthema zawadskii (Herb.) Tzvelev, Cupressus sempervirens showed antibacterial activity only on gram-positive bacteria.
