Understanding Hair Texture: Fine, Medium, and Coarse Explained

Hair texture isn't just about curl pattern — it's about the diameter of the individual strand, and it affects everything from how a cut falls to which products will work and which will weigh the hair down. In this video, I break down the three main texture types and what each one means.

Fine hair needs volume without weight — avoid heavy creams and oils. Medium hair is the most versatile and generally forgiving. Coarse hair benefits from moisture-based products and needs techniques that reduce bulk without stripping texture. Knowing where you fall on this spectrum changes everything.
