Why perform a hair diagnosis?

Your hair tells a story that goes far beyond a simple hairstyle: its texture, shine, and movement reflect its unique nature. Hair diagnosis is the art of reading between the strands to reveal what makes them beautiful.

By precisely identifying your hair's characteristics, you create the foundation for a personalized hair care routine that enhances its natural radiance. This precise approach guides you toward the most harmonious treatments and accessories, adapting to the changing seasons, your lifestyle, and your desires. It's the ideal starting point for a hair ritual that elevates 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 way to targeted care and respectful styling.

Understanding your hair involves observing:

Texture : fine, medium or thick, it influences the volume and sensitivity of the fiber.
The shape – straight, wavy, curly or frizzy – 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 ability 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 hair.

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 care routine is like a custom-made wardrobe for your hair: it adapts to its texture, density, and condition each day. And to create it, everything starts with a suitable hairbrush that respects the hair fiber.

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

Once the importance of diagnosis is understood, the question remains: how to apply it on a daily basis? Let's discover together the simplest and most effective methods for analyzing your hair.

How to perform an effective hair diagnosis?

Your hair deserves the same attention as your skin when it comes to skincare. A home or online hair diagnosis is the first step in creating a personalized hair care routine tailored to your specific needs.

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

At home: the simple steps

Performing a home hair diagnosis only takes a few minutes and requires only a mirror… and a little curiosity. Here's how to become your own hair expert:

Observe them : shine, volume, suppleness.
Touch to understand : a soft strand has received what it needs; a rough strand requires more care.
Test the porosity : dip a clean hair into a glass of water.
It floats → low porosity, it retains moisture well.
It runs → very porous, it absorbs treatments quickly but loses them just as 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 is most respectful of your hair fiber.

The professional tools used

Want to go further? A professional hair diagnosis offers an ultra-precise analysis 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 tools to analyze your hair, either on your own or with the help of a professional. The next step? Identifying your specific hair type to further refine your routine.

Hair types: how to recognize them?

Identifying your hair type is a bit like discovering your hair's identity card: every detail counts. Texture, thickness, movement, shine… everything is visible and tangible. A good hair analysis, whether done online or at home, helps you understand how your hair behaves and which accessories will best enhance it.

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

Fine, thick, curly, wavy, straight hair…

Every hair type tells its own story. To create a personalized hair care 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 subtle, light passes through it easily.
Thick hair : wide diameter, feeling dense, it resists styling more. In its natural state, it offers generous volume and holds styles well.
Curly hair : visible curl from the root or mid-length, with a natural bounce and a tendency to shrink back when dried.
Curly hair : very tight curls, spiral or "S/Z" shape. Voluminous, dry texture, they require extra hydration.
Straight hair : smooth surface, without waves, 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. Closed cuticles retain water and treatments better, resulting in soft, supple, and manageable hair. Conversely, higher porosity allows hair to absorb products quickly but also loses moisture just as fast, requiring richer and more frequent treatments. Understanding this factor helps you choose between lightweight or nourishing textures to optimize each hair care routine.

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

Finally, the condition of the scalp is just as essential as that of the hair. Dry, sensitive, balanced, or oily, it directly influences the vitality of the hair. A healthy scalp promotes regular growth, reduces breakage, and strengthens the hair fiber. When it is weakened, targeted treatments such as serums or gentle shampoos restore its balance and give hair back its strength and shine.

By better understanding the shape, density, and condition of your scalp, you can take your hair care to the next level. Use the Bachca hair diagnostic tool for a complete and personalized analysis.

Which brush should I recommend depending on the user profile?

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

Curly hair

Curly hair needs suppleness, hydration, and gentle care. Its spiral structure makes the hair fiber more fragile, as moisture struggles to travel along the curl. A detangling and volumizing brush or a wide-tooth comb preserves the natural shape without breaking the curl pattern or causing frizz. It helps maintain soft, defined, and shiny curls that stay bouncy from morning to night.

Flat hair

Flat, often fine hair needs volume and lightness. A well-designed volumizing brush gently lifts the roots, aerates the hair fiber, and creates an immediate impression of fullness. In just a few strokes, the lengths regain density, natural movement, and an airy effect that revitalizes the entire hairstyle.

Sensitive scalp

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