Why carry out a hair diagnosis?

Your hair tells more than just a styling story: its texture, shine, and movement reflect its unique nature. Hair diagnostics is the art of reading between the strands to reveal what makes them beautiful.

By precisely identifying their characteristics, you create the foundation for a personalized hair routine that enhances their full radiance. This precise step guides you toward the most harmonious treatments and accessories, while supporting their evolution over the seasons, your habits, and your desires. It's the ideal starting point for a hair ritual that enhances your natural beauty.

Understanding the nature of your hair

Every head of hair is unique and defined by several characteristics that, together, form its identity. Understanding these characteristics opens the door to targeted care and respectful styling.

Understanding your hair involves observing:

The texture : fine, medium or thick, it influences the volume and sensitivity of the fiber.
The shape : straight, wavy, curly or frizzy, it guides the choice of techniques and accessories.
Density : The number of hairs per square centimeter determines the perception of volume.
Porosity : low, medium or high, it indicates the hair's capacity to absorb and retain moisture.
The condition of the scalp : balanced, dry or oily, it plays a key role in the overall health of the lengths.

Observing and analyzing these parameters allows you to choose accessories that reveal all the natural beauty of your hair, while respecting its balance.

Adapt your care and accessories

A personalized hair routine is like a tailor-made wardrobe for your hair: it adjusts to its texture, density, and condition on the day. And to create it, it all starts with a suitable hairbrush that respects the fiber.

Your hair will be enhanced with treatments designed for its condition, type, and environment (humidity, diet, pollution, heat). Target your needs precisely: tailored products (shampoo, mask, treatment) and quality accessories (eco-designed comb, hairbrush).

Once you understand the importance of diagnosis, you still need to know how to apply it on a daily basis: let's discover together the simplest and most effective methods for analyzing your hair.

How to make an effective hair diagnosis?

Your hair deserves the same attention as your skin during your skincare routine. An at-home hair diagnosis or online hair diagnosis is the first step in creating a personalized hair routine tailored to your individual needs.

The more you know about your hair and scalp, the more you can give them what they truly love. Whether it's a quick hair self-diagnosis or a free hair test, the goal remains the same: understand, adapt, and enhance.

At home: simple steps

Performing a home hair diagnosis takes just a few minutes and requires nothing more than a mirror... and a little curiosity. Here's how to become your own hair expert:

Look at them : shine, volume, suppleness.
Touch to understand : a soft strand has received what it needs; a rough strand requires more care.
Test for porosity : Dip a clean hair into a glass of water.
It floats → not very porous, it retains moisture well.
It flows → very porous, it absorbs care quickly but loses it quickly.
Analyze the scalp : dry, sensitive, balanced or oily?

In just a few steps, this DIY hair test guides you to the right products, from shampoo to mask, and to the hair accessory that's most respectful of your hair fiber.

Professional tools used

Want to go further? A professional hair diagnosis provides an ultra-precise reading of your hair fiber and scalp. Experts use:

Magnifying cameras to analyze the condition of the cuticle.
High-precision sensors to measure hair hydration, elasticity and density.
Targeted questionnaires to study your habits and environment.

This in-depth hair analysis (or hair consultation) allows us to recommend not only ultra-personalized care, but also the right hairbrush that will make all the difference.

You now have the keys to analyzing your hair, whether on your own or with the help of a professional. The next step? Identifying your hair type to further refine your routine.

Hair types: how to recognize them?

Identifying your hair type is a bit like discovering your hair identity card: every detail counts. Texture, thickness, movement, shine... everything can be read by the eye and the touch. A good hair diagnosis, whether done online or at home, allows you to understand how your hair behaves and which accessories will enhance it.

This is the key to creating a personalized hair routine that respects your needs, while benefiting from natural hair care and hair accessories that simplify your life.

Fine, thick, curly, frizzy, straight hair...

Every hair type tells its own story. To create a personalized hair routine and choose the right hairbrush, you need to know how to read these signs:

Fine hair : very small in diameter, often imperceptible to the touch, it bends easily and sometimes gives a flat appearance. Its shine is discreet, light passes through it easily.
Thick hair : large diameter, dense feeling, it resists styling more. Naturally, it offers generous volume and holds its shape well.
Curly hair : curl visible from the roots or mid-length, with a natural bounce and a tendency to shrink when dried.
Curly hair : very tight curls, spiral or “S/Z” shaped. Voluminous, dry texture, they require increased hydration.
Straight hair : Smooth, wave-free surface from root to tip. It reflects light very well, hence its silky appearance.

Porosity, Density and Scalp

Hair porosity refers to its ability to absorb and retain moisture. Tightly closed hair cuticles retain water and care products better, making hair soft, supple, and easy to style. Conversely, higher porosity absorbs products quickly but also loses moisture just as quickly, requiring richer and more regular care. Understanding this parameter allows you to choose between light or nourishing textures to optimize each routine.

As for hair density , it refers to the number of hairs present on the scalp. A high density naturally provides volume and substance, even when each hair is fine, while a lower density often requires specific styling: blow-drying, texturizing products, suitable accessories, to maximize the visual effect and give an impression of mass.

Finally, the condition of the scalp is just as essential as that of the lengths. Dry, sensitive, balanced or oily, it directly conditions the vitality of the hair. A healthy scalp promotes regular growth, limits breakage and supports the strength of the fiber. When it is weakened, targeted treatments such as serums or gentle shampoos rebalance its comfort, and restore strength and shine to the hair.

By better understanding the shape, density, and condition of your scalp, you can go further. Use the Bachca Hair Diagnostic Tool to get a complete and personalized analysis.

Which brush should I recommend depending on the profile?

Finding the right brush is like discovering the secret that will reveal the full beauty of your hair. Depending on your hair type and the needs of your scalp, certain accessories become true allies.

Curly hair

Curly hair requires suppleness, hydration, and respectful care. Its spiral structure makes the fiber more fragile, as moisture has difficulty circulating along the curl. A detangling and volumizing brush or a wide-toothed comb preserves the natural shape without breaking the spring or causing frizz. It helps maintain soft, defined, and shiny curls that stay bouncy from morning to night.

Flat hair

Flat, often fine, hair craves volume and lightness. A well-designed volume brush gently lifts the roots, aerates the fiber, and creates an immediate impression of fullness. In just a few strokes, lengths regain fullness, natural movement, and a light effect that energizes the entire style.

Sensitive scalp

A sensitive scalp requires respect and special attention. Tightness or irritation can be soothed with a soft brush equipped with flexible bristles, which gently stimulate circulation without being harsh. This transforms styling into a truly comfortable experience, where each stroke of the brush becomes a relaxing and beneficial massage.
