What is true about medium hair texture?

  1. More prone to damage

  2. Has a balance of melanin, typically no problems

  3. Smallest diameter, least amount of melanin

  4. Largest diameter, greatest amount of melanin

The correct answer is: Has a balance of melanin, typically no problems

Medium hair texture typically has a balance of melanin, with no problems of being too thin or too thick. This option is the most suitable choice as options A, C, and D mention specific characteristics that are not generally true of medium hair texture. Option A implies that medium hair texture is more prone to damage, which is not necessarily true as medium hair texture neither too thin nor too thick. Options C and D mention specific diameters and melanin amounts that are not generalizable to all medium hair textures.
