HairS'19
HairS‘19 will follow the tradition of the DWI-organized hair scientific meetings offering a unique platform for discussing the newest and most appealing ideas of hair research and hair care science. The focus has always been on scientific aspects – not only by pure academic interest but because we believe that they form the nucleus of innovations in hair care. We cordially invite you to attend HairS’19. We look forward to another outstanding scientific meeting of colleagues and hair experts from all over the world.
HairS‘19 is organized by the DWI - Leibniz Institute for Interactive Materials and the institute‘s Expert Advisory Board “Hair Cosmetics“.
