19 Best Natural Hair Products For Fine Hair!

So, what is fine hair?

There are several hair typing systems that help us better understand our hair.

There can be two naturals with very similar curl pattern but still might have a very different head of hair, simply because of the width of their strands.

Natural hair varies according to curl patterns, porosity, and width.

Natural air width is the average diameter of one’s strands. There are generally three types of hair widths: fine, medium, and coarse.

The term “fine hair” refers to the natural hair that has a small circumference or that has a small diameter. Fine hair is mainly dependent on your genetics, and all hair types regardless of their curl pattern can have fine hair.

Is fine hair the same as thin hair?

No, fine hair is not necessarily thin natural hair. The term “thin” hair refers to hair density and not hair width. Thin hair means that one has few hair follicles per square inch. A fine-haired natural can have a full mane consisting of strands that are small in diameter.

What are the characteristics of fine hair?

Fine hair might appear very full when washed and air-dried but falls flat and limp when straightened or blow-dried.

Fine hair is easily weighed down by heavy oils, creams, and butters.
Fine hair is fragile and easily prone to breakage when overmanipulated.
Fine hair takes easily to color or dye.

Fine hair usually doesn’t hold a hairstyle too well.
What oils work best for fine hair?

As fine hair tends to get weighed down by-products, you’d be better off using products that are quickly absorbed into the strand and that do not leave a heavy coating. Argan oil, almond oil, and jojoba oil do not leave a greasy residue our fine strands.
