Deciphering the Dynamics of Textured Hair: Comprehensive Guide to Mastering the Science and Art of Textured Hair Care Paperback
A groundbreaking guide that redefines how we analyze, understand, and care for textured hair. Moving beyond curl typing systems and one-size-fits-all myths and methodologies, this book introduces the Texture Profile, a comprehensive, three-part assessment tool that examines hair through the lens of Hair Properties, Texture Dynamics, and Hair Thresholds, using the Texture Profile Wheel.
Written by Serriah L. Hart, a Master Cosmetology Instructor and textured hair specialist with over 25 years of experience, this book equips professionals, educators, and advanced enthusiasts with the language and tools to accurately assess textured hair, strand by strand, individual by individual.
You’ll learn how to:
-
Identify and work with five core Hair Properties: density, strand diameter, elasticity, porosity, and length
-
Decode Texture Dynamics, including texture type, movement (shape), and pattern incongruence
-
Assess Hair Thresholds like moisture, protein, friction, manipulation, and tension
-
Map these elements using Scalp Spatial Distribution (SSD) to understand how hair varies across different regions of the head
-
Create more personalized product recommendations, styling choices, and hair care strategies based on each client’s unique profile
