I had fine, stick-straight (and I do mean STICK-straight) hair growing up. Sometime mid- to late-20s my hair became wavy. It is now thick(!) and quite wavy. Does this really happen? I do use haircolor (L'oreal Feria) and include more fat in my diet than I used to. Could my hair texture really have just changed, or does the "wave" reflect damage from haircoloring?

Texture changes in hair is most likely due to hormonal changes in your body--the fat in your diet would only make your hair shine more.

My brother had the same kind of hair, and now that he is older has a cute curl on his hair and thick, never did die his hair. I think it has to do with age, and your diet. You might not believe the people that cut your hair have anything to do with it, but some people's hand's, like if you let a pregnant women cut your hair, it will either take a long time to grow, or if supper straight help it get wavy, how true this is ?. A lot has to do with your hair changing to lack of vitamins and of course the chemical process will help your hair loose it's normal oil's. Use lots of healthy products on your hair, to bring back that glow, I have a lot of hight light's and take extremly good care of my hair to keep it looking healthy, and it looks very healthy after all the chemicals I have used on it myself...

Until your late teens, early twenties, you have finer hair than you will as an adult. The wave has likely developed because of how you style your hair, not because of color. It's called "training". Your hair learns to go a certain way because you are always trying to make it go that way. Eventually it begins to grow in that way, unless your hair is very fine.
If you are concerned about damage from hair color, try Sunsilk Hydra TLC. It is fantastic. I color my hair and it's so healthy that the hairdresser thought all those highlights were natural until I changed from light brown to red highlights. My hair is healthier now than it has ever been.

Hair texture can change from a vary of things. It can be the damage from coloring or bad nutrition. Or if you have had your hair permed it can also be from that. You can use products to ease the waviness.

I just studied this in Anatomy and Phisiology. My teacher said nutrition is the BIGGEST key to healthy hair. She said that this includes water.
But hormones play a role also.
From my experience, my hair has did the Exact same thing you are descibing. It changed after I had my kids!

My hair was also super straight and it is wavy now. I think it can change. It may be partly due to styling it and using dyes etc. for many years.

I don't know. My hair was curly when I was young and now its wavy sometimes and straight sometimes
your hair may be healthier if you say it is thicker.

your hair does change as you get older, that's why you hear older people say they wish they had baby hair again.
when i was little my hair was straight, thin and blonde. as i got older it became thick, wavy, and brown. i look at picture of me when i was five and wish i still had my hair then.
