Understanding your hair type

Because textured hair is never one-size-fits-all

Knowing your hair type is one of the most useful steps you can take when building a routine for textured hair. Hair type goes beyond just curls or coils — it also includes things like density, porosity, moisture retention, and how your hair responds to different products and styling methods. In this section, we break down what these terms mean and how they affect the way you should care for your hair. With a better understanding of your hair’s unique characteristics, it becomes easier to choose products, routines, and habits that support softness, strength, definition, and long-term hair health.
