I have fine or thin hair. Will New Wash weigh it down or make it worse?
Fine hair is Hairstory's largest customer segment - 4,275 reviews, 82% positive. Fine hair doesn't need more product - it needs less disruption. Detergent shampoo strips fine hair of the sebum that gives it body and movement, leaving it flat. The conditioner added afterward weighs it down further. When you stop the stripping, the hair gets to find its natural balance and volume returns - not from anything being added, but from the absence of what was taking it away. Washing frequency naturally drops for most fine-haired customers as the scalp stabilizes. New Wash Original or Deep Clean is typically the right formula - Rich can be too moisturizing for very fine hair. The adjustment period for fine, oily scalps tends toward the longer end of the two-to-four week range.
