Hi, I know this is a weird question, but is it possible to train which direction hair grows from the cuticles?


The thing is I want to have my hair parted, and I do have it parted, and most of the hairs do seem to go in the direction I want (to the side) however some seem to keep going to the front no matter what.




thanks!

I assume you mean from the follicle. The cuticle is the outside covering on the hair strand.

There IS a way to train your hair. You'd have to come up with a consistent combing routine while the hair is wet, after each and every time you wash your hair. After a few weeks, your hair will eventually part itself or seem to grow in the right direction.

HTH :)
