OUR MODELS

We have done 2 models: One showing both damaged hair and healthy hair and the other one showing the different continent in the world on their rates of hair loss, connecting to the climate.

The material used for the 1st model

• Modeling clay
• Styrofoam
• Plastic container
• Wire
• Thumbtacks
• Strings
• Penknife

Steps to make the 1st model

1. We have to cut out 2 different shapes of hair from the Styrofoam
2. Place modeling clay on the 2 templates
3. Then, we cut out the scalp from the Styrofoam
4. Place modeling clay on the shape
5. Stick the wire and the strings onto the Styrofoam scalp
6. Combine the hair and the scalp together
7. Place them on both side of the plastic container.
8. Paste black paper on the other two sides of the container
9.

11.     HAIR GROWTH MODEL
12.                   
13. THIS IS THE MODEL OF                     THIS IS THE MODEL OF THE DAMAGED HAIR.
14. A NORMAL HAIR GROWTH 

This model shows us what's in a scalp and hair.Its a magnified section of the growth of the hair. his model has 2 sides . One side shows the normal hair growth  while the other shows the growth of a damaged hair. Both models are put in a transparent tank .By doing the model we get to have a better image on the development of hair.We also leant to differentiate between the normal and damaged hair. For the damaged hair there is androgen which is purple in colour present.For the labeling of our model, you can click on the picture of the model.

The materials used for the 2nd model

• Styrofoam
• Paints
• Toothpicks
• Colour papers
• White glue          
• Sticky tape
• Penknife

The steps to make the 2nd model

1. Cut the continents out of one Styrofoam
2. Then paint the continents
3. Stick the continents on another Styrofoam board
4. Make small flags using the toothpicks and the colour papers
5. Then write about the climate of different continents on the flags
6. Poke the flags on the continents accordingly      

MODEL OF  WORLD MAP

This is the model of the world map. In this model we have shown the different climate of the 7 continents. If the climate is generally  hot we paint the continent red and if the continent average temperature is cold we paint it green. you must be wondering what has the world climate got to do with hairloss. Well climate affects the rate of hairloss. From our research we found out that colder temperature have a greater effects on hairloss rather than hot temperatures.

In our model, AFRICA, AUSTRALIA, ASIA, and part of SOUTH AMERICA is classified as countries with hot temperatures. While EUROPE , ANTARCTICA , GREENLAND , NORTH AMERICA and part of SOUTH AMERICA is classified as colder climate. So the countries which is painted green has a higher rate of hairloss than those painted red.CLICK ON THE MODEL TO HAVE A MORE DETAILED INFORMATION.
