Soft tape measure
Soft tape measures are flexible alternatives to rigid metal measures that can easily fit around objects. Furthermore, soft measures are less likely to cut your hand when clicked back quickly. They are, therefore, commonly used by sewists and tailors for measuring curved areas, typically constructed of either fiberglass or PVC and featuring both inch and metric markings.
Start by finding one inch’s length; its most extended increment should be labeled “1,” and its shortest increment will usually be marked with “x.” There will likely be multiple perpendicular marks between these increments with decreasing increments; they are indicated with numbering for more effortless reading; half-inch marks between two-inch marks should be read as “one and a half.”
Most tape measures also feature increments for feet, with “x ft” appearing after every 12 inches. To calculate an accurate foot measurement, add all the lengths of the longest and shortest increments together.
Hair density
hair density refers to the number of strands growing within a 1-inch section of your scalp. It can range from thin, medium, and thick hair, regardless of texture.
For an accurate measure of hair density measurement, researchers use an imaging technique called trichoscopy that counts individual strands; however, this method may prove impractical and time-consuming in practice.
An alternative way to assess hair density is to look at it naturally. Begin with dry hair tied into a ponytail; if your scalp can easily be seen, then that indicates low density; medium and high densities require more effort to be seen clearly; knowing your density will help determine which products and styles will work best for you, as well as what to expect when visiting a hair stylist for haircut or styling services.
