Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What makes Kosei's new technology different?
- A: It not only evaluates the static state of hair but also uses high-speed cameras to quantify and analyze the flexible movement and settling of hair after it has been moved, allowing for improvements.
- Q: Why does hair become stiff when using a hair iron?
- A: This is because the heat reduces the viscosity of components like the intercellular cement (CMC) inside the hair, making it less able to quickly absorb movement.
- Q: When will products using this technology be released?
- A: Products using this technology are scheduled to be released in the fall of 2026.
