Par texture, on entend la grosseur du cheveu même. On la reconnaît facilement au toucher. Il ne faut pas confondre texture et densité. La texture des cheveux est souvent héréditaire mais elle n'est pas nécessairement liée à la qualité des cheveux. Le cheveu peut appartenir à l'une des trois catégories de texture suivantes : grosse, moyenne, fine.

OBS

texture des cheveux : terme uniformisé par le Comité du projet de lexiques (Nouveau-Brunswick).
