    Glossary Fiber Curvature

    degree of bend or curl in hair strands

    Fiber curvature refers to the degree of bend or curl in a hair strand. It is a measure of how much the hair deviates from being straight, which can influence the hair's overall texture and appearance. For professionals, understanding fiber curvature is important for diagnosing hair conditions, creating hair care products, and designing treatments that cater to different hair types.
