Scalp & Hair Questionnaire
1
Welcome to your new healthy hair journey
CHAT Skin & Hair Co is a skin and hair wellness company. We are dedicated to advancing skin and hair wellness by addressing the critical need for high-quality resources and expert guidance. This questionnaire helps you properly identify the condition of your scalp and hair, which are crucial to how a person cares for their hair. Everything we do to the hair is centered around the scalp type, hair pattern, density, texture, porosity, and length.
Scalp type is based on how the scalp feels: dry, oil, or neither.
Hair pattern is the shape of the strands: straight, wavy, curly, extremely curly/coily.
Density is amount of hair strands per square inch of the scalp: thick, extremely thick, thin, extremely thin.
Texture is quality of the strand: course, medium, fine.
Porosity is the ability of the strand to absorb and maintain moisture: low, average, high. Length is how far the strands extend beyond the scalp.
NOTE: All of the above elements of the scalp and hair can change due to daily care habits, product usage, diet, hormones, and overall health.

Which option best describes the length of the hair on your head?
Trying to determine hair length can be a challenge. To help with the process, we use everyday items for compassion. Start measurement from the base of the scalp, where the hair comes out. Use this items as reference points for measurement.
None(Bald, like a melon)
an 1'' or less (length of a quarter of less)
2 to 4'' ( no longer than the width of a bank card
5 to 10''( 5 is a little less than the length of a soda can) 10 would be a little more than 2 cans
11'' or more (a roll of paper towels is 11'' wide)

What is your hair texture
*
This field is required.
Hair texture refers to the how the individual strands feel or look. It's hard to gauge by looking with the naked eye. Grab a strand or two between the thumb and pointer fingers. Fine hair strands will feel similar to paper. Course(thick) hair strands will feel similar to hair thread. If the feel of the strands is neither thick or fine, you have medium textured strands. This is a fun step to do with family or friends for comparison.
Fine
Medium
Course(thick)

What is your hair porosity?
Porosity is the ability of the hair to absorb and retain moisture, which is important when rinsing hair and applying products. The hair strands have 4 main layers, some have 3. The top layer, the cuticle, protects all the other layers and the condition of this layer determines porosity. The top layer is similar to the shingles on a roof. If the hair strands feels rough, you have high porosity. For an easier, quick test of the strands, brush or comb hair, drop the strands that have shed into cup of water. Similar to the picture below of the eggs in a cup, if your strands float to the bottom, you have high porosity hair. If your strand stays floating at the top, you have low porosity. For average porosity, strands will remain in the middle of the cup.
Low

High
