Hair types

Hair is one of the most important part in a human body and it plays a vital role in enhancing one's self esteem. In this section, we would try to understand hair types.

Let us perform a tissue paper test, which will help to find your hair type. Shampoo your hair properly before a day you undertake this test. Take a tissue paper and press it on the center of the head and behind the ears. If you find traces of oil on the tissue paper then your hair is oily or else dry.

If your head is oily and ends are dry, you have a combination hair. If your hairs are non-greasy and is shiny then your hair is dry. It is very important to know your hair types before you go ahead with nourishing it.

Dry Hair:

Dry hair is due to the inactive oil glands. Harsh shampoo, action of chemicals or excessive exposure to sun is the other reasons that could cause dry hair. Oil gets accumulated on the pores, which blocks it. This blockage does not allow the oil to flow on the surface.
Oily hairs:

Oily hairs are caused due to over secretion of oil. The scalp and hair gets too oily due to this condition. It looks greasy even after shampooing and attracts more dirt.
