Abstract
Methods provide for measuring moisture content of skin, such as the scalp. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a method comprising the steps of: (a) providing a means for measuring skin moisture content; (b) using said means for measuring skin moisture content to obtain at least two measured moisture content values from skin; (c) comparing said at least two measured moisture content values with each other to obtain a measured moisture content differential; and (d) correlating said measured moisture content differential to a skin moisture value for said skin.
Claims20
A method for measuring moisture content of skin, said method comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a means for measuring skin moisture content;
- b) using said means for measuring skin moisture content to obtain at least two measured moisture content values for said skin;
- c) comparing said at least two measured moisture content values with each other to obtain a measured moisture content differential;
- and
- d) correlating said measured moisture content differential to a skin moisture value for said skin.
A method for measuring moisture content of scalp, said method comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a moisture meter for measuring scalp moisture content;
- b) using said meter to obtain at least a first measured moisture content value for said scalp at a position off said scalp;
- c) using said meter to obtain at least a second measured moisture content value for said scalp at a position on said scalp;
- d) comparing said first measured moisture content value with said second measured moisture content value to obtain a measured moisture content differential;
- and
- e) correlating said measured moisture content differential to a scalp moisture value for said scalp.
A method for measuring dandruff conditions on scalp of a consumer, said method comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a moisture meter for measuring scalp moisture content;
- b) using said meter to obtain at least two measured moisture content values from head of said consumer;
- c) comparing said at least two measured moisture content values with each other to obtain a measured moisture content differential;
- and
- d) correlating said measured moisture content differential to a dandruff condition indicator value for said consumer.
