    GlossaryHair Types (Hair Textures)

    categorizes hair by curl pattern, thickness, and structure

    Hair types, also known as hair textures or hair classifications, refer to the categorization of hair based on its curl pattern, thickness, and overall structure. The most common system classifies hair into four main types: Type 1 (straight), Type 2 (wavy), Type 3 (curly), and Type 4 (coily or kinky), with further subcategories (A, B, C) within each type to describe variations in curl tightness and texture. Understanding hair types is crucial for selecting appropriate hair care products and treatments.
