Get To know about Straight Hair

Characteristics:

• Straight hair tends to have a sleek appearance without significant bends or waves.
• It can range from fine and thin to coarse and thick in texture.
• Remains straight when wet and maintains its straight form after drying as well

Reason for Texture:

• This hair type results from a hair follicle which is typically round in shape, which allows the hair strands to grow straight from the scalp without curling.
• Genetics play a significant role in determining texture of the hair, this hair type is dominant in most populations.

Truths:

• Straight hair is generally easy to style and manage, requiring less effort in terms of detangling and maintenance compared to curly or wavy hair types.
• It reflects light more evenly, giving it a shiny appearance.

Myths:

• Straight hair is always sleek and smooth- in actuality, straight hair can still experience frizz and flyaways, especially in humid conditions.
• Straight hair doesn’t need conditioning- on the contrary, it definitely requires conditioning for hydration, smoothness, and manageability. Conditioning is essential for maintaining the health and vibrancy of hair.

Love:

Straight hair loves lightweight styling products that add volume and texture without weighing it down. It thrives with minimalistic styling routines and sleek, polished looks.

Foe:

Despite its ease of styling and simplicity, straight hair may struggle with maintaining volume and holding certain hairstyles without the help of styling products. It can appear flat or lack texture if not styled appropriately.

Styling Tips:

• Consider adding volumizing shampoos and conditioners specifically designed for straight hair to enhance volume and body.
• For adding volume at the root level, experiment with blow-drying with a round brush, but be careful to use a heat protectant before you do that.
