Hair texture defines the diameter of the hair, which ranges from fine to coarse strands. All hair textures behave differently. Fine hair can resemble fine silk, while medium hair is usually spunky without displaying the stubborn characteristics of wiry, coarse hair.

To help you accurately pinpoint the correct hair texture, use this tried-and-true method: Compare the hair to a length of regular sewing thread. If the hair is the same thickness as the thread, it’s medium. If it’s smaller than the thread, it’s fine. If it’s thicker than the thread, it’s coarse.
