It’s a universal truth: when you have curls, you long for straight hair. When your hair is stick-straight, you just want waves. But you can learn to love your hair type – no matter what it is.
We’ve pulled together a primer on identifying your hair type, what kinds of challenges you can expect when styling, and how you can learn to relax and love the hair you have.
Straight, curly, coarse, fine, thin, heavy – hair comes in a multitude of textures. And once you know a little bit more about your hair, life gets a whole lot easier with a Pegasus comb which suits your hair type!
STRAIGHT HAIR TYPE
Straight hair can vary in thickness and coarseness, which will totally change how you cut and style your hair. Straight hair develops its structure from the shape of the cortex. The fibers of the hair are round, making it drop evenly on all sides of the scalp. For Straight Hair Type, Pegasus Contoured 100% Hard Rubber combs backed by Flexinite Technology are most suitable. They have smooth rounded tips, unlike other combs in the market they gently untangle hair without damaging your hair or your scalp.
WAVY HAIR TYPE
Wavy hair is much heavier and thicker than straight hair. And while it may look pretty, all that texture makes these hair types extra temperamental. This is why Pegasus Handle combs are the perfect match for wavy hair because of their wide and rounded teeth which gently glides through waves without affecting the volume of the hair.
CURLY HAIR TYPE
From spiral curls to tight corkscrews, curly hair is prone to breakage and frizz – but when it behaves, it’s gorgeous. Curls need special attention because the follicle is generally more fragile and drier than other hair types. Hence for curly hair, Pegasus Afro Combs and Pegasus Wide Teeth Combs should be a go to. Their wide and rounded teeth gently detangle hair, without causing any damage to curly hair while also maintaining a consistent volume all around.
Now that we know what we’re working with, it’s time to get real: no matter what type you have, hair isn’t easy to take care of. It requires a lot of love and yes, a perfect comb partner - Pegasus!
