    Glossary Hair Texture

    natural shape and pattern of individual hair strands

    Hair texture refers to the natural shape, feel, and appearance of an individual's hair strands. It is primarily determined by the thickness of the hair shaft and the pattern of the hair follicle, which can result in straight, wavy, curly, or coily hair. Factors such as genetics, ethnicity, and even environmental influences can affect hair texture, making it a crucial consideration in both cosmetic and medical contexts.
