NIS³H² Climate Hair Assessment - Complete Guide

NIS³H² Climate Hair Assessment

Your Complete Evaluation Tool for Climate Adaptation Success

Natural Hair Therapist

Welcome to Your Climate Hair Assessment

This comprehensive assessment tool is designed to evaluate your current hair health status across all seven pillars of the NIS³H² framework and identify your specific needs for successful climate adaptation. Unlike generic hair assessments that focus on superficial characteristics, this evaluation examines the deeper factors that influence how your hair responds to environmental changes.

Climate adaptation affects every aspect of hair health, from internal nutrition to external care practices. This assessment will help you understand where you currently stand, identify areas that need immediate attention, and develop a personalized action plan for successful climate hair adaptation.

Important Assessment Guidelines:

  • • Answer all questions honestly based on your current situation
  • • Consider your experiences over the past 6 months for the most accurate assessment
  • • If you're currently in transition between climates, answer based on your new environment
  • • Take your time with each section - thorough assessment leads to better recommendations
  • • Keep your original climate and new climate in mind when answering environmental questions
