Hair Type and Texture

Straight to wavy hair usually shows this outline clearly. If curl is part of the hero, use definition products rather than forcing a sleek helmet. Fine hair needs restrained layering or a denser perimeter. Thick hair needs controlled weight removal without collapsing the named silhouette.
