Here's an easy way to determine the volume of your hair: Pull your hair back into a ponytail. If the base of the ponytail is very slim—about the diameter of a dime— the volume of your hair is thin. Another clue for thin volume: can you see your scalp when your hair is wet? If so, your hair is probably a thin hair volume type.

If your ponytail is "two-fisted"—and looks almost like a true horse's tail—your hair a thick hair volume type. When your hair is wet, it covers your scalp very well, without any of the scalp showing through.

If you fall between these extremes, you have a medium hair volume type—this is the most common hair volume type.

Medium Hair Volume Type

Medium hair volume type is the most versatile and has the widest range of possibilities, in terms of selecting a style. It's the most common hair volume and also the most manageable. Hair with medium volume generally holds a curl and takes well to chemical processes, including perms, hair relaxers and hair coloring. You can choose just about any hair style, experiment with a range of styles, and be thankful for your hair volume type.
