Coarse hair should be texturized at least how far from the scalp?

• A. 1-1/2'' (3.75cm)
• B. 1'' (2.5cm)
• C. 2'' (5cm)
• D. 3/4'' (1.9cm)

Answer: (A)

Coarse hair carries more bulk due to its larger diameter, so texture should be added away from the scalp to blend smoothly without thinning the root area. Texturizing at least 1 1/2 inches from the scalp helps remove bulk through the mid-lengths and ends while keeping fullness at the roots and creating a softer, natural transition. If you work closer than that, you risk leaving a harsh edge or uneven density right at the scalp, which can look choppy on coarser hair. So the minimum distance to start texturizing is 1 1/2 inches (3.75 cm).
