Density of Hair {🪨 2021 update}

Definition

The density of hair is the weight of the hair per its volume.

Formula

ρ = m / V

• ρ:  Density
• m: mass
• V: Volume

Density vs Specific Weight vs Specific Gravity

I would like to point out that there are conceptual differences between density, specific weight and specific gravity. Follow the link if you want to learn more about these differences.

With that said, this page will provide you the hair density in kg/m³ (SI unit), g/cm³, g/ml, kg/l, lb/ft³.

Density of Hair

𝛒 = 1.32 g/cm³

𝛒 = 1320 kg/m³

𝛒 = 1.32 g/ml
𝛒 = 1320 g/L

𝛒 = 82.4049 lb/ft³
