Fun Stuff: Hair Raising

The following table contains results from analyzing hair samples (hint: stretch out tin capsules to make a boat, cut hair into ~1.5 cm lengths to fit into boat, then fold it up--Thanks E!). These are from students taking a class dealing stable isotopes, as well as test runs done here. If you'd like to post results here too, please contact me. A spreadsheet containing this data can be found here: (soon I hope)

Do all the numbers make sense?

Can you match up results with diet?

Hair Spray and Conditioner Effects?

Are hair roots a problem?
