![]() ![]() While there are many styles and cuts you can enjoy when you have curly hair, be sure to visit a hair stylist who has a lot of experience cutting curly hair. Like other textures of hair, there are different types of curly hair which are based on thickness and the size of the curl.Įven though curly hair can be difficult to manage at times, you don’t need (nor should you) wash your hair every day because your hair is drier than straight hair. Women with curly hair can have loose ringlets or tight spirals. Curly HairĬurly hair has more “true” curls than wavy hair. While your waves probably get a ton of compliments on a “good hair day,” frizz can be your biggest enemy. If you have type 2c wavy hair, it may look like you have curly hair, as you might have loose spiral curls. Type 2b waves are prone to frizz, but the right hair product can help make this hair type a little more manageable. The waves of type 2b hair are a little tighter and more defined than type 2a. Since this type of hair is typically finer hair, a shoulder length cut makes the hair type most manageable. ![]() Type 2a has a slight bend to the hair shaft, and it doesn’t get as frizzy as other types of hair. If you have type 2a wavy hair, you’ve got a naturally “beachy hair” look, which many women with straight hair are trying get with curling irons and lots of hair product. What type of wavy hair do you have? Type 2a Like straight hair, there are different types of wavy hair. While many women with wavy hair struggle living in an in-between world of straight and curly hair, wavy hair is typically not too oily and not too dry. If you have naturally wavy hair, your strands are completely curled, but they form more of an “S” shape than a coil. Short cuts work well (and feel lighter, too), but require quite a bit of maintenance. Layered cuts that are long in length may make styling this type of hair the easiest. It can be difficult to manage, and it’s the most difficult to set curls. Type 1C is the coarsest and thickest of all straight hair. The hair isn’t too thick to make it hard to manage and not too thin that you’ll see a lot of scalp. Women with type 1B hair are good candidates for many of the sleek and sophisticated looks (like an updo or a slicked back look). It also has more volume and is easier to manage. If you have type 1B straight hair, it’s a little thicker than fine hair. If you have this kind of straight hair, you can follow any of the styling tips for thin hair (such as a layered cut and color.) Type 1B It looks and feels “perfect” but often lacks volume. You may think that straight hair is straight hair, but there are three different types of straight hair. While straight hair is relatively easy to care for, it can lack volume and be hard to style. Like all other types of hair, straight hair is beautiful but many straight haired women wish for curls and waves, and the only way to make this happen is with a curling iron or perm. Women with straight hair are more likely to have more “oily” hair since the natural oils can easily coat the whole straight strand of hair. If your hair has no curl or wave to the strand, you have straight hair. Some Reasons Why Your Type of Hair May Change.I think depending on frizz is what most people see when they type people hair, but frizz I believe is just a part of the hair, The way it coils is more important when hair typing from my experience. My youngest daughter I believe hair resembles mine way more and her’s is definitely a 4a/4b. My daughter hair is cotton puff ball without a tight coil like mine. I believe my daughter’s hair is a 4c because it’s what I call kinky straight because truth be told, I think b is a tighter coil than 4c because although the coils are smaller, they are not as tight. I use oil water and moisturizer for my hair, preferably conditioner for my hair. My hair is coarse and thick and it feels hard when dry. I notice when I wear it in box braids it keeps it’s length and how much it grows with in the six week period is actually amazing. The biggest issue is retaining length due to breakage. My hair grows quickly so I don’t have problems there. ![]() Here’s the thing, even when my hair is short around the edges it coils. ![]() It often gets mislabeled as 4c because of the lack of sheen and high frizz but it’s coily like 4b and when it forms into an afro the it’s densely pack. ![]()
