Can I determine my scalp moisture from my hair type?Updated 3 months ago

Yes, your hair type determines how oil travels, how moisture behaves, and how products absorb. Straight, wavy, curly, and coily hair each follow a different biological pattern. That’s where we begin.

Straight: Oil travels easily from root to end, which can lead to faster buildup
Wavy: Oil moves unevenly, creating mixed moisture zones
Curly: Natural bends slow oil distribution, leaving ends drier
Coily: Tight coils make it hardest for oil to travel, requiring richer replenishment
