Expert Hair & Scalp Analysis in Chicago

The foundation for beautiful, healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. At GC by George Charles, we have an expert team who can help you achieve your hair’s full potential.

Understanding Your Hair’s Story

Every strand of hair tells a story about your health, habits and haircare routine. Under the guidance of Karen Gordon, our on-staff Certified Clinical Trichologist, we offer a comprehensive Hair & Scalp Analysis using state-of-the-art technology to examine your hair at a microscopic level. The analysis reveals insights that will enable you to improve the condition of your scalp, the quality and quantity of your hair, and address any challenges you may be experiencing with shedding, hair thinning, and hair loss.

The Science Behind Our Analysis

At GC by George Charles, along with Karen Gordon, Certified Clinical Trichologist, we combine advanced technology with a knowledgeable team of experts. Our specialized equipment magnifies your scalp and hair shaft, allowing us to evaluate your hair structure and scalp health. This includes looking at:

  • Scalp condition

  • Hair density and growth patterns

  • Hair shaft structure and strength

  • Moisture content and porosity

  • Signs of damage

  • Early indicators of hair loss and other concerns

We also examine the hair follicles to look for congestion and irritation, essentially, to understand the state of your hair health. We go to the source.

Our Professional Analysis Process

Your session begins with a detailed consultation where we discuss your hair concerns, current routine, and goals. Our haircare professionals, equipped with both extensive training and cutting-edge diagnostic tools, then perform a comprehensive multi-step analysis:

  • First, we examine your scalp’s condition using high-definition imaging technology. This scalp analysis reveals crucial information about your follicle health and anything that might affect your hair’s growth and appearance, such as:

    • Oil production patterns

    • Scalp pH levels

    • Factors affecting hair growth

    • Skin conditions

  • Next, we analyze individual hair strands to look at their structure, strength, and overall health. This detailed examination helps us understand how your hair responds to different treatments and what it needs to thrive. Our professionals use this analysis to evaluate:

    • Hair strand integrity

    • Level of chemical or environmental damage

    • Response to different treatments

    • And more

Following your analysis, we can identify haircare techniques, products, and treatments that will benefit your scalp and hair. We also gain insight into any existing damage and how best to counteract it. This information allows us to create a personal haircare blueprint.
