Scalp Health Check
A check for the skin your hair grows from.
Hair gets all the attention, but it grows out of skin — and that skin shows visible signals: shine where there's oil, flakes where it's dry, show-through where coverage thins. A guided scan reads them across four angles and keeps the record.

How it works
Four photos. One baseline. Every change tracked.
Same four angles, every time — so each new scan compares fairly to your very first.
Front · crown · temple · back
Capture
Four guided angles in about 30 seconds — the same views every time.
Hairline · density · scalp
Read
AI reads each angle for hairline shape, crown density, and scalp surface.
Usable · limited · low-light
Qualify
Every reading shows its confidence — limited views are flagged, not guessed.

Surface signals
What the surface actually shows.
Three visible signals, read only where the photos support them — plus an honest flag when they don't.
Visible shine
Reflective patches under even light — the appearance signal behind what people call an oily scalp.
Flaking, where shown
Visible flakes at partings and edges — reported only where the photos actually show them, never assumed.
Coverage and show-through
How much scalp shows through at the crown and part — the context every other surface signal sits in.
Marked uncertainty
Scalp close-ups are genuinely hard. Anything the photos can't support is flagged as low confidence, not invented.
Check, don't guess
Four angles, one surface story.
Same light, same angles
Guided capture keeps conditions comparable — which matters more for surface signals than for anything else in the report.
Signals, not conditions
The check names what's visible — shine, flaking, show-through — and stops there. Naming conditions is a professional's job.
A baseline for your routine
Trying a new routine? A dated baseline shows whether the visible picture looks any different a month later.
Flagged when it's beyond photos
Itch, pain, or irritation don't photograph. If that's what brought you here, a professional beats any camera.
Questions
Good to know.
What does the scalp health check look for?
Visible surface signals: shine, flaking, and scalp show-through, read across four angles with a confidence level on each. It describes what the photos show — appearance only.
Can it detect scalp conditions?
No — it doesn't name or detect conditions, by design. It describes visible signals and tracks how they change over time. Anything that needs a name needs a professional.
Can I use it to see if my routine is making a difference?
You can use it to see whether the visible picture changes: scan before a routine change, rescan a month later, and compare the same angles. It's informational only — for treatment advice, a professional is the right source.
Why four angles for a scalp check?
Because different zones show different signals — shine tends to read along the part and crown, flaking at partings and edges, show-through wherever coverage thins. One selfie can't cover that; four fixed angles can.
Are my photos private?
Yes. They're processed to build your report only — never used to train AI, never sold, never used for advertising.
A note on transparency
Informational and cosmetic — not a diagnosis.
ScalpAnalysis AI reads appearance-based signals and tracks visible change over time. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition.
If you have pain, sudden shedding, or signs of infection, a qualified professional is the right next step.

This is the exact report format a scan unlocks — qualitative tiers, your visible features, and a confidence level on every reading. Saved as a baseline you compare against on every rescan.
