“…With this, hair care and treatment have changed dramatically over time as a result of ongoing research into new formulations to try to suit the demand in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics sectors. While basic hair cosmesis practices like washing, colouring, and bleaching are targeted at cleansing, maintaining, and accessorising hair, newest hair care techniques are mostly concentrated on preventing hair fall or loss situations, bolstering hair cavity characteristics, and treating infestations in hair [35].…”

“…Finally for the transcellular pathway, the penetration of the substances to the corneocytes and lipid layers to reach living cells is direct [33]. However, the follicular delivery of nanoparticles offers some advantages over traditional routes, such as improved skin absorption, increased penetration depth, and longer residence time, quick delivery to the skin and tissue targeting [35].…”

Hair quality is viewed as an important factor of health. It is a fundamental structure made up of simple uncomplicated filaments that provides protection from heat from either direct sunlight or any processes involved in hair care treatments. Moreover, it mirrors a person's social status and relationships, including features like youthful appearance, age, and lifestyle trends. Cosmetic products intended for hair care are used for several purposes to enhance overall hair, shaft, and scalp health. This is where nanotechnology-based delivery for hair care enters. The advancement of research and development demonstrated by nanotechnology boosts hair care product efficacy by delivering creative solutions. This review paper aims to discuss and provide an overview regarding nanotechnology and its incorporation into hair care cosmetics in order to enhance quality as well as hair care delivery. Specifically it presents a summary of all the gathered publications with relevance to nanotechnology and its application to hair care products in terms of delivery, benefits, and the risks involved with its inclusion. With this, the major findings of several studies presented that nanoparticles can increase the advantages of active substances when incorporated into hair care products and that the improved understanding regarding pathways of the hair care delivery has helped in the personalization of products which in turn improves hair cosmesis.
