Features
Short hair is defined as hair length shorter than 10 cm.
Short hairstyles are usually much more elaborate in styling than long hair. As a result, there is also more risk that short hair is stressed by styling products and damaged by elaborate blow-drying in combination with styling. This is especially true if it is also colored or blonded.

Features
Long Long hair has a length that extends over the shoulders. As this means that the hair is constantly in direct contact with textiles, the physical stress on the hair is above average. As a result, the hair is destructured or, in other words, damaged by the physical impact much faster than with other hair lengths.
Of all hair lengths, split ends occur most frequently in long hair.
Recommendation
With curly hair - also called frizzy or curled hair - the hair stands steadily in all directions and does not take on a graphic structure.
Curls are basically a genetic trait, which is due to a special interconnectedness of the fiber stem of the hair. Curly hair is generally difficult to style and often suffers from dryness. Accordingly, it has a special care and styling requirement.

Medium length hair is defined as a length of hair that does not yet rest on the shoulder.
Medium-length hairstyles are mostly layered, which means that almost all hair layers are in direct contact with the environment. Therefore, medium-length hair usually lightens in the sun throughout and not only - as with long hair - in the upper hair. Consequently, medium-length hairstyles will always require care over time.

Features
Normal hair is hair quality that could be described as "healthy". Here, the cell membrane complex and the fiber stem of the hair are in a well-conditioned state - either through good care or through good, natural conditioning.
In order to maintain this condition, especially during the hair's lifetime, it is advisable to treat the hair gently and without irritation, without over-caring for it.

Features
In technical terminology, hair that does not appear sufficiently aesthetic on its own - i.e. without care and / or styling - is referred to as hair in need of care. This can be hereditary. However, it can also be the result of a hair treatment in which the hair was destructured, i.e. damaged.

Features
Dandruff is caused by the disruption of the so-called microbiome as a protective layer of the scalp. The microbiome is responsible for the balance between the death of old skin cells and the formation of new ones. If it is disturbed, an excessive amount of dandruff develops on the scalp, which is spread over the entire head by the natural movement of the hair.
The causes of scaly scalp can be numerous, often fungal pathogens.
In technical terms, scaly hair is referred to as pityriasis capitis.
Recommendation
Features
Trichoptilosis - commonly known as split ends - is a splintering of the hair at the ends. The ends of the hair are slightly brittle and appear dull. This rarely occurs in shorter hair, as short hair is exposed to less friction from movement (for example on the shoulders) and is often cut more frequently to maintain hair length. Split ends are a cosmetic problem as they make the hair look less smooth and organized.
