The panelists evaluate the hair's softness and smoothness by touching and feeling the hair and assigning scores based on their sensory perception.

This test provides valuable insights into the performance of hair care products in enhancing the feel of hair, which can be useful for companies in substantiating their product claims and improving their customers' experience. The results of the Hair Softness/Smoothness test can be an essential factor for hair care companies in product development and improving their competitive edge in the market.
