    GlossaryFine Hair

    individual hair strands with a small diameter, appearing delicate

    Fine hair refers to individual hair strands that have a small diameter, making them appear thin and delicate. This type of hair can be more prone to breakage and may lack volume, but it is not necessarily sparse; a person with fine hair can still have a full head of hair. Fine hair is often confused with thin hair, which refers to the density of hair follicles on the scalp rather than the thickness of individual strands.
