  14. Scale Casts • Scale casts may also be prepared using clear nail polish. • A thin coat is painted on a glass microscope slide. • The hair is placed on the slide and allowed to dry. • When the surface has dried, the hair is removed to reveal the scale pattern imbedded in the nail polish.

  15. Glass Microscope Slide Preparation • Hair specimens are prepared for microscopic examination by mounting them in a semipermanent medium, such as Permount®. • Positioning a hair on the glass slide is made easier by first applying a thin film of solvent on the slide surface. • Longer hairs are configured in a figure eight in order to fit it under the cover slip. • Several drops of mounting medium are applied on top of the hair(s), and a cover slip is carefully lowered to prevent the presence of air bubbles.
