GlossaryHair Texture Changes

alterations in hair's feel, appearance, and structure

Hair Texture Changes refer to alterations in the feel, appearance, and structure of hair. These changes can be due to various factors such as hormonal shifts, aging, medical conditions like alopecia, or external influences like chemical treatments and heat styling. For instance, hair may become coarser, finer, curlier, or straighter over time. Understanding these changes is crucial for both diagnosing underlying health issues and tailoring appropriate hair care treatments.
