Types of Hair
There are basically three types of hair: oily, dry and normal.
Hair Type: Oily
When the oil glands (Sebaceous glands) in the scalp secrete excess oil, it travels down the hair shaft, causing excessive oiliness on the scalp and hair. The oily hair appears lank, dark and coarse.
Hair Type: Dry
In contrast to the oily hair condition, dry hair is a result of the lack of sebum and oil on the hair causing it to dry out at cellular level. Flakiness of the scalp and dandruff are a direct result of dryness. The hair looks limp, becomes Jess elastic. and is more susceptible to breakage and damage.
Hair Type: Normal
It is healthy, silky hair without over-dry ends or over-oily roots. It is the easiest to cope and care for.
