Abstract

The present invention relates to a device for evaluating condition on skin or hair. The device provides one extension supporting a hydration meter suitable for measuring hydration values in areas difficult to measure (e.g., skin in scalp area) and; a separate extension supporting a camera for capturing images of an area of skin or hair and transferring said image to computer. Data from these sources are evaluated and scored. The multiple data points are used to provide a highly targeted product best suited for each individual consumer.
