How do I know if I have thin fine hair?

Trying to identify whether you have thin hair, fine hair or thin and fine hair can be quite difficult. Fine hair has to do with the thickness of the actual hair strands. According to trichologist Brigette Hall, fine hair can be characterised by hair strands that are “missing the inner structure called the medulla”, which make the actual thickness of each strand less than a normal stand of hair. If your hair is becoming finer, you will notice a difference in the quality of your hair. It may break more easily. Thin hair however, concerns the actual number of strands you have on your head. To identify if your hair is becoming thinner, you will probably notice hair falling out and a reduction in the amount of hair you actually have.
