Pillar 2 — Texture Indicators™ · 3 Blocks
The Dynamics of the Hair
How the hair behaves and presents — informs service approach and product selection
07 — Texture Shapes™
Texture Shapes™
Geometric coil/wave pattern — determines service approach across the full spectrum

SSD Methodology — Scalp Spatial Distribution
Texture Incongruence™ Mapping
Identify and document texture variation across all 9 scalp zones — click each zone to cycle through states
Click each zone to set its texture state
Standard — tap once
Uniform with primary texture — tap twice
Texture Incongruence™ — tap three times
Requires special attention — tap four times

Pillar 3 — Hair Thresholds™ · 5 Blocks
The Limits That Protect the Hair
Score each threshold — slide to assess current level; document clinical findings below
Moisture Threshold™
Cuticle capacity to absorb and retain moisture · Determines conditioning protocol frequency and product layering

Protein Threshold™
Structural tolerance for protein · Too little = breakage; too much = brittleness
DEFICIENT BALANCED 50
