Hair texture refers to the diameter of your individual hair strand. The 3 main texture categories are
A.) Fine,
B.) Medium,
C.) Coarse.
A Fine hair texture tends to have a delicate nature which could mean the hair is prone to breakage and tangling. Fine hair may also boast little volume. A major obstacle for styling fine hair is that the follicles can hold on to oil very easily, and too much product weighs the hair down which is typically characterized by low volume natural look.
A Medium hair texture may be more resilient than the fine hair texture and may be able to hold styles/curls with more success. Medium hair has the ability to absorb oils in a way that does not affect styling as much as and can be less prone to breakage than other finer textures.
The Coarse hair texture is the thickest in diameter and most resistant to typical damages suffered by other textures. Coarse hair textures may hold styles well, and give the full volume appearance, but can be temperamental with different styles.
We should also note that with understanding your texture you must also be aware that there are four different hair types which references our natural curl pattern. Curl patterns range from Straight (with little to no curl) considered
Type 1 hair, to Wavy (with some volume) considered
Type 2, Curly (with a bit more volume) which is considered
Type 3, and lastly, Coily (where volume can seem endless) which is considered
Type 4. It is extremely common to have more than one texture type in our hair and understanding your specific pattern will make it much easier to care for your hair as well as achieve desired styles. Learning your hair’s natural texture and type will make purchasing hair extensions that are truly aligned simple and effortless. Ultimately assisting you in caring for your hair while simultaneously providing you with that voluptuous volume and luxurious length you have always desired!
