In the past few months, the texture of my hair has changed drastically. If you take a look at this chart, my hair used to be a 2C and now is a 2A if not even looser waves. There have been a few changes in my hair that I think may account for it:

Laser surface texturing provides several benefits such as improved tribological behavior of the surface, reduced friction, increased anti-adhesive properties and improved wettability and lubrication applications. Even though, surface topography or surface roughness resulting from laser processing of steel surfaces have been studied in literature, the relation between laser texturing parameters and scale-limited areal surface texture parameters are not as much investigated and correlated. Fiber lasers provide a flexible solution for texturing different materials with different surface structures. In this paper, laser surface processing and texturing of tool steels is considered, and a nanosecond fiber laser system is utilized to scan and texture the surfaces of AISI D2 tool steel under a shield of Argon gas to prevent oxidation. The effects of laser energy density, scan velocity, and strategy on the texture line width and resultant areal surface texture parameters have been investigated. It was found that Argon gas during laser texturing of tool steel helps to achieve not only less heat affected zone but also slightly lower surface roughness indicating that the application of an inert gas requires further investigations.
Hmmm, my texture turned out super creamy. What temperature is your coconut oil before you add it? It should definitively not be hard or else the end result may be gritty in the final result. I hope this helps!
As to texturing, say, for a ring, if the ring is made somewhat
small, a sharp hammer can produce textures to bringing the ring up to
required size. Dental drills can be used with lubrication to
advantage. Then experiment flame colouring the titanium and removing
the surface then recolouring to a lower temperature leaving the
recessed areas with a different colour.

Gold pressure marker is circled in red, and yellow crosses indicate the position of XRD beam where most of exposures have been performed. It is in ArNe2, at the edge of an argon crystal.
XRD patterns collected for four experimental runs at various pressures. Tick marks indicate the positions and predicted intensities for perfect powders of each compound in the pressure chamber; the arrows indicate the positions of diffraction peaks for hcp-argon. The inset represents the XRD image corresponding to run 5 pattern. In this run, argon sample was a fine powder and XRD rings are identified with red and orange arrows, corresponding to fcc Ar and platinum, respectively.

Nearly all argon in Earth's atmosphere is radiogenic argon-40, derived from the decay of potassium-40 in Earth's crust. In the universe, argon-36 is by far the most common argon isotope, as it is the most easily produced by stellar nucleosynthesis in supernovas.
Argon is extracted industrially by the fractional distillation of liquid air. It is mostly used as an inert shielding gas in welding and other high-temperature industrial processes where ordinarily unreactive substances become reactive; for example, an argon atmosphere is used in graphite electric furnaces to prevent the graphite from burning. It is also used in incandescent, fluorescent lighting, and other gas-discharge tubes. It makes a distinctive blue-green gas laser. It is also used in fluorescent glow starters.
Argon was first isolated from air in 1894 by Lord Rayleigh and Sir William Ramsay at University College London by removing oxygen, carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen from a sample of clean air.[16][17][18] They first accomplished this by replicating an experiment of Henry Cavendish's. They trapped a mixture of atmospheric air with additional oxygen in a test-tube (A) upside-down over a large quantity of dilute alkali solution (B), which in Cavendish's original experiment was potassium hydroxide,[15] and conveyed a current through wires insulated by U-shaped glass tubes (CC) which sealed around the platinum wire electrodes, leaving the ends of the wires (DD) exposed to the gas and insulated from the alkali solution. The arc was powered by a battery of five Grove cells and a Ruhmkorff coil of medium size. The alkali absorbed the oxides of nitrogen produced by the arc and also carbon dioxide. They operated the arc until no more reduction of volume of the gas could be seen for at least an hour or two and the spectral lines of nitrogen disappeared when the gas was examined. The remaining oxygen was reacted with alkaline pyrogallate to leave behind an apparently non-reactive gas which they called argon.
Argon constitutes 0.934% by volume and 1.288% by mass of Earth's atmosphere.[22] Air is the primary industrial source of purified argon products. Argon is isolated from air by fractionation, most commonly by cryogenic fractional distillation, a process that also produces purified nitrogen, oxygen, neon, krypton and xenon.[23] Earth's crust and seawater contain 1.2 ppm and 0.45 ppm of argon, respectively.[24]
Between locations in the Solar System, the isotopic composition of argon varies greatly. Where the major source of argon is the decay of 40
K in rocks, 40
Ar will be the dominant isotope, as it is on Earth. Argon produced directly by stellar nucleosynthesis is dominated by the alpha-process nuclide 36
Ar. Correspondingly, solar argon contains 84.6% 36
Ar (according to solar wind measurements),[26] and the ratio of the three isotopes 36Ar : 38Ar : 40Ar in the atmospheres of the outer planets is 8400 : 1600 : 1.[27] This contrasts with the low abundance of primordial 36
Ar in Earth's atmosphere, which is only 31.5 ppmv (= 9340 ppmv 0.337%), comparable with that of neon (18.18 ppmv) on Earth and with interplanetary gasses, measured by probes.
The predominance of radiogenic 40
Ar is the reason the standard atomic weight of terrestrial argon is greater than that of the next element, potassium, a fact that was puzzling when argon was discovered. Mendeleev positioned the elements on his periodic table in order of atomic weight, but the inertness of argon suggested a placement before the reactive alkali metal. Henry Moseley later solved this problem by showing that the periodic table is actually arranged in order of atomic number (see History of the periodic table).
Solid argon hydride (Ar(H2)2) has the same crystal structure as the MgZn2 Laves phase. It forms at pressures between 4.3 and 220 GPa, though Raman measurements suggest that the H2 molecules in Ar(H2)2 dissociate above 175 GPa.[35]
Argon is extracted industrially by the fractional distillation of liquid air in a cryogenic air separation unit; a process that separates liquid nitrogen, which boils at 77.3 K, from argon, which boils at 87.3 K, and liquid oxygen, which boils at 90.2 K. About 700,000 tonnes of argon are produced worldwide every year.[24][36]
Other noble gases would be equally suitable for most of these applications, but argon is by far the cheapest. It is inexpensive, since it occurs naturally in air and is readily obtained as a byproduct of cryogenic air separation in the production of liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen: the primary constituents of air are used on a large industrial scale. The other noble gases (except helium) are produced this way as well, but argon is the most plentiful by far. The bulk of its applications arise simply because it is inert and relatively cheap.
Argon is used in some high-temperature industrial processes where ordinarily non-reactive substances become reactive. For example, an argon atmosphere is used in graphite electric furnaces to prevent the graphite from burning.
For some of these processes, the presence of nitrogen or oxygen gases might cause defects within the material. Argon is used in some types of arc welding such as gas metal arc welding and gas tungsten arc welding, as well as in the processing of titanium and other reactive elements. An argon atmosphere is also used for growing crystals of silicon and germanium.
Argon is used in the poultry industry to asphyxiate birds, either for mass culling following disease outbreaks, or as a means of slaughter more humane than electric stunning. Argon is denser than air and displaces oxygen close to the ground during inert gas asphyxiation.[37][38] Its non-reactive nature makes it suitable in a food product, and since it replaces oxygen within the dead bird, argon also enhances shelf life.[39]
Argon is used to displace oxygen- and moisture-containing air in packaging material to extend the shelf-lives of the contents (argon has the European food additive code E938). Aerial oxidation, hydrolysis, and other chemical reactions that degrade the products are retarded or prevented entirely. High-purity chemicals and pharmaceuticals are sometimes packed and sealed in argon.[44]
In winemaking, argon is used in a variety of activities to provide a barrier against oxygen at the liquid surface, which can spoil wine by fueling both microbial metabolism (as with acetic acid bacteria) and standard redox chemistry.
Since 2002, the American National Archives stores important national documents such as the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution within argon-filled cases to inhibit their degradation. Argon is preferable to the helium that had been used in the preceding five decades, because helium gas escapes through the intermolecular pores in most containers and must be regularly replaced.[46]
