limp hair
Lacks body, volume
Limp hair lacks body, volume, or bounce—it hangs flat against the head rather than holding shape or movement.
The term usually describes fine or thin hair that resists styling, or hair weighed down by oil or product buildup: My hair goes limp by the end of the day.
Limp hair is the opposite of full, bouncy hair.
