Summary

Knowing how to measure all possible hair parameters is key when it comes to a hair clinic. Here, in this chapter, you will find an overview of some of the methods from the older techniques to the latest. Such methods have been classified into three subtypes: noninvasive (e.g., phototrichogram, trichoscopy), semi-invasive (e.g., trichogram), and invasive (e.g., histopathology). TrichoScan software measures many hair parameters using a videodermoscopy image; therefore, it is an example of the phototrichogram method.
