Recently Beauty Collection Calabasas held their Beauty 101 Event, an all day beauty extravaganza. J.F. Lazartigue was in attendance, administering their cutting edge Hair & Scalp Analysis tool – the Numeric Hair Analyzer. The two part system is unlike anything I’ve ever seen, using a laptop and large microscope tool to produce an on the spot hair prescription.

How does it work?

Working in conjunction with a J.F. Lazartigue specialist, the service begins with one single hair tweezed from the root and placed in a small plate [just like the ones from Science class].  Then, your hair appears on the screen, magnified 50 – 160 times to get a clear view of what’s going on.

At this point, the specialist is able to ‘check your symptoms.’  Is your hair damaged or dry?  Are you washing enough?  Are there both thin and thick areas?  Believe it or not, all of that info is obtained from that one, single hair and a quick once over with the mobile scope.
