Type 1: Straight Hair – The hair grows straight down without any noticeable waves. Type 2: Wavy Hair – This type of hair has a slight bend or wave to it. It can range from loose waves to defined curls.

Straight hair (Type I) falls smoothly from the roots to the ends. It’s known for being low-maintenance, but it can also lack volume. Straight hair tends to be more oily since the natural oils from the scalp can easily reach the hair strands. In contrast, wavy hair (Type II) has a gentle, S-shaped curve from the midpoint to the ends.

Straight hair is characterized by its smooth and sleek appearance. It is the easiest hair type to manage and style, but it can also be the most difficult to add volume and texture to. Wavy hair is less defined than curly hair but more defined than straight hair. It has a natural “S” shape that gives the hair bounce and movement.
