What's Included in the Hair Diameter Measurement Plus Test?

  1. The average fibre diameter* across all the fibres tested is independent of length.

  2. Average fibre diameter* at fixed lengths measured at known distances from the scalp.

*Average hair measurements are calculated by analysing over ten hair fibres.

To ensure the accuracy of our measurements, HairKnowHow will require the hair sample supplied via a pull test that must include the root. This way, we can provide you with reliable and precise data.

The Hair Diameter Measurement Plus Test measures change in hair thickness over time, providing valuable data for clinical advice. By testing changes in the hair at different lengths, it may be possible to detect when the client's hair changed and inform clinical advice.

Our Hair Diameter Measurement Plus Test is easy and convenient for your clients, requiring only a small hair sample (detailed below).

Hair Sample Requirements

How and where you take your client's hair sample depends on your client's hair and scalp presentation and what you would like to investigate.

If you would like images taken at other specific lengths, please stipulate the distances from the root (up to 4 positions including the hair root or terminus) you would like the images to be taken on the order form and whether you wish to include the fibre terminus.

Suggested methods for collecting hair samples include:

  • The pull test - taken from across the scalp or a specific scalp area of interest

  • Removing the sample by cutting hair from a particular section of the scalp

  • Collecting hair using a clean brush or comb

For the Hair Diameter Measurement Plus Test, we require 20 separate fibres. The length of all hair fibres must be at least as long as the longest image sampling position request, e.g. 15cm etc.

Please note: No specific sample preparation is required.
