Did you mean Hair Direction?

GlossaryHair Direction

natural angle and pattern of hair growth

Hair direction refers to the natural angle and pattern in which hair grows out of the scalp. This can vary from person to person and can influence how hair is styled, how it falls, and how it responds to different haircuts. Understanding hair direction is crucial for professionals in hairdressing and dermatology to achieve desired styling results and to address issues like hair loss or scalp conditions effectively.
