Abstract Increasing interest in spectroscopic studies of human hair raises the question about the accuracy of measurement of their spectra and requires optimisation of experimental facilities. An original method of obtaining transverse hair sections without using a microtome and chemical influence is proposed. The results obtained by confocal Raman microspectroscopy of human hair differently oriented with respect to the optical axis of the measuring setup are compared. It is shown that, in addition to expected changes in the spectra measured at different distances from the hair periphery in the direction to its centre, the spectra measured in the case of hair excitation perpendicular and parallel to its axis are also considerably different.

Confocal Raman microspectroscopy has previously used pinholes placed at the back focal plane of the microscope to provide depth resolution along the optical axis. The process of optimizing the pinhole alignment can often be difficult and time-consuming. We demonstrate a different approach to setting up a confocal Raman microscope using a stigmatic spectrograph and a CCD detector. This arrangement is easy to use and provides a depth resolution of ∼2 μm.
