One gramme of hair serum was compressed between two 20 x 20 cm vertical plates, the upper of which weighed 125 g. After one minute, the spread periphery was measured.

Spreadability was calculated using the following formula

S = M x L/ T
Where, S = Spreadability.
M = Weight in the visage (tied to the upper slide).
L = The glass slide changed the length.
T = Time (in sec) taken.

Stability
