Joy Before Her Hey I am a new subscriber ☺️ I have the same type of hair as you but I get a lot of frizz in the back of my head like the noticeable parts what can I do to get them more defined and less frizzy?
Yanitza Ayala I get the same thing. You just have to apply a little more product to the back and apply it in sections so the whole part is saturated
My hair is also a 3A curl and I thought that I was the only one that with wet hair my hair is straight thanks for saying it
I have from what your telling me a mix between 3a and 3b what's the best products for this?
Hey thanks for this video I understand now. My hair is all over the place the top of my hair since it’s more natural it’s like a 3 but it gets really dry and frizzy middle of my hair is a 2b/c dry and frizzy and the bottom is like 1/2a because I bleached it many times. I wish my hair was more curly and not be all over the place lol.
when i go to the pool, people are like “why is your hair straight? i thought you had curly hair? are you lying” like no when my hair is wet it’s straight and when it dries, it’s curly
Same
same
People seem to not understand that really hahah
jocelyn schneider my hairs so curly even when its soaking wet you still see the curls. Your curls must be waaaaaay looser than mines
Yes this is my life
If Mariah Carey , Shakira & Beyoncé had a baby it would be you 😍
Drop dead gorgeous 😍😍😍😩🤤
OMG yes!
Natasha Grace 😍😍😍
and zoe saldana😍
100% Yes. I didnt know what you were talking about until the video started and I was like OH DAMN SHE GORG!
2C/3A hair is lowkey the most judged hair type ever. on some charts we are this and on others we are that and people don’t understand how loose curls actually work.
Omg I think this is my hair type too! It’s hard to figure out.
This is me somewhere between 2C/3A
It doesn’t help that I’ve only been knowing how to take care of my 2b-3a type hair recently!!! People ask me if I’ve gotten a perm or if I heat curled it. My hair used to look straight and frizzy asf ig that’s how people identified me back then😂 but today is day 5 after my wash day and it’s still going strong!!!!! I never thought I’d get to this point in my life🥺 I would like to thank my silk pillow/head wrap, my hair masks, finger coiling and gel for this work of art :P
@@fighterflight same between a 2c and 3a
Yesss people be telling something and others be telling me something else
As a guy with 3A curls, its so hard explaining to people, it's my actual hair, and not something i've had made. I also found it really hard to find out which curly type i had, since many people kept saying different stuff. Im happy i found this video, to really help me, and understand my hair better.
Does anybody else have a curl type that changes according to the length of their hair?
Yepp. When my hair is short my hair gets to almost a 3b and when its longer its more of a 2c
That's how everybody's hair is unless it's straight. Curls get weighed down when your hair is longer, thicker, has a lot of product in it, etc. So you might have 3a textured hair when it's very short, but then it becomes 2b when your hair is really long.
Since your ends aren't weighed down nearly as much as the rest of your hair, you will likely have more texture on the bottom than on the top.
There are ways to sort of fix this, but the looser the texture the harder it is to avoid.
It can look nice though, so you may not even want to change it if in you think it is.
You can make your hair's texture fully come out by getting specific haircuts. You could even get a haircut made specifically for your hair type, but only if you wear it natural all the time, because it won't look good with straightened hair.
Sorry for the long comment!
That’s all hair
Yessssss!!
Yeah, my hair was barely wavy before I cut it and now it’s like a 2c
IM STILL CONFUSED
WHATS MY HAIR TYPE
WHATS MY SEXUALITY
WHAT IS LIFE
보석Nat This is the most relatable comment ever lol. To help you figure out your curl type, you can see how much it shrinks from when you pull on the curl, to when it’s in a normal resting state. I have type 3c hair. When it’s wet, it’s obviously weighed down, so it looks like type 2 hair, but you can still tell that I have curls. If it were to look straight while wet, then it would probably be more like type 2 - 3a hair. I hope this helped and also, best of luck with figuring out your sexuality. I have the same struggle all of the time.
Same! But for now, I'm gonna pretend my hair type is somewhere between super wavy and mild curly.... And my Sexuality is just... Er.... Maybe, asexual? 😅
@@bibillyjay just for reference, asexuality means you don't have sex. It doesn't tell you that you your gender preference or anything, it just tells you that you aren't sexuality attracted to anyone. I am asexual and bisexual so you could be two.
@@sanjanaprabhu6397 yes, you're right, for now, I am being Asexual
보석Nat WHAT IS LOVE? Baby don't hurt me... Don't hurt me
I have 2c/3a curls too! My hair always looks straight when it’s wet and transforms as it dries. I totally get it girl! Thanks for this video, it really helped me🙏 I am finally learning how to truly take care of and style my curls!
@a i think that’s why they said 2c/3a,,
SAME! I sometimes don't even know what my hair type actually is 😭
Really? Mine is a little curlier when wet than it is dry
@foreverdreamwithinadream6871 Dose it just get curler when dries or do u do anything to it/ sorry if it’s a dumb question😭
I have 2a and 2b curls. I love the fact that when I dry my hair completely with a diffuser I have the biggest fullest curls. If I let my hair air dry they are just wavy. The curls are very versatile depending on how I style it 😊
My daughter has 2a/2b curls. Her hair is also very long I have no idea how to care for it. Do you have any tips or links you could share?
2a and 2b aren’t curls, it’s more of a wavy hair type
@@moonmush the lady in the video literally just explained that wavy hair is part of the curly hair community🙄
me too! we have such freedom to kind of wear it however we feel which is nice.
@@moonmushAll of the types shown from 2a-4c are all curls.
Heyyy all my 2c/3a girllsss! Love to see so many of us 💁🏽♀️
❤
yesss
😘💞
Hey!!!
💕💕❤️❤️
Is nobody gonna talk about how GORGEOUS her hair is!?
And the hair color is just bomb! 😍
Giiiirrrlll yesss
My hair is 4a/3c...I love that my hair is simultaneously kinky, coily and curly. I can go from a fro to mini twists, cornrows and braids or from a blow out to the silkiest silk press. My styling options are limitless!
I think I watched the wrong video my hair looks like none of these curls
WOW that's incredible!!! It's like you won the curly lottery!! :D
Coming from someone who is also a mixture of 2b/2c/3a curls, I completely understand the difficulty with understanding how oddly straight my hair looks when it's wet but as it drys it just looks so much like yours and people often don't get it (and if I'm being honest, neither did I until the last year or so).
"3a curls are the most misunderstood curls
4c coils: "hold my beer"
AkidNamedBob we grow our hair out so the curls fall a little. But never out.
It’s needed, trust me😂😂. Shirley Temple couldn’t of been said enough to me as a child..
No she’s completely correct because people think they curl their hair by themselves
Moon Lluna I get that. Sounds annoying!
Also see how coils could be misunderstood. 😄
Bright Eyes Waves are also misunderstood🤷♀️
All curlies are misunderstood! It's a shame man, even wavies. People have such weird assumptions
3A. I love that my curls never look exactly the same way on any given day. I don't have "bad hair days" I have fun curl days.
Fun curl days, that's genius!
Cute ❤️
unless U had a bad dream and your head looks like an extra large fellaini
THE.BEST.RESPONSE.EVER!!!
idek what my hair type is anymore lol. im between straight and 2a but idk which i have
‘Some people have every single type on their hair’ 😂😂😂 quite relatabile
I have wavy hair and someone at work looked me dead in the eyes and said my hair is straight cuz I’m white....gate keeping is why I used to always straiten my hair and never take care of my hair texture...now I take care of it more and my waves have become more defined
You should do a video where you let subscribers send you pictures of their hair and you help them determine through picture what their curl pattern is ! Cause I still struggle😩
AprilTiberc yesssss
Same girl 😣
I really liked that she included photos for all curl types. Most people just show the squiggly line diagrams, which don't really show much of anything. Seeing photo examples of each type was extremely helpful. I knew that my hair was *somewhere* between 2b and 3b. Now I know that it is 2c at the top and 3a at the bottom. I was only able to narrow it down after seeing the explicit examples in this video!
Yesssssss
That might be never ending 😅 lol. You didn’t see a picture that represented your curls the most? If not, it could just be that your hair is in between two types which is normal
A beyonce mariah carey love child???!!
And a little Shakira too!
Yessss i was looking for this comment
Exactly what I said
ikr!!! And She's GORGEOUS !!!
YES OMG
I'm a 2B, and was obsessed with trying to get my hair curlier (doesn't help my bf has beautiful natural curls), but I'm learning more now how to take care of and love my hair type and give it the proper care it deserved! I love how it can look like I just taken a dip in the sea, with beachy waves, with little to no effort now!
Diffusing helps too, along with seasalt spray. I also love Uncle Funky's Magic Curls before I diffuse on soaking wet hair and Garnier curl refresher in between wash days.
This actually helped me so much because I’ve always thought that I had straight/ frizzy/wavy hair till about a year ago when I started to actually take care of it, and idk it’s just so much healthier and voluminous. Im honestly very happy with the progress I’ve made and all that jazz.
You look like Beyonce and Shakira had a baby😂 Im living for it💕
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
She kinda reminds me of young Mariah, when SHE had beautiful curls!
i remember i was in my business class and the girl i sat next to was like “elanorrr, your hair is curly, who curled it for you?” i explained to her that my hair is naturally curly and if i were to curl it, it would look a lot nicer than this, she then replied “ohhh, i don’t believe you, but it still looks nice :)”
elanor smh
Omg I woulda gone off on her 😭
OMG! I have the same experience all the time. There is this one girl who has dead straight hair and hates me because she thinks I'm trying to hide the hair curling secrets. I find it's more common if you have 3a-b hair curls or curls around that, my friends with tighter curls don't have the same thing happen and find my struggles hilarious.
I have 2c curls that tend to spiral a bit and because of my low porosity, I don't get too much frizz. I have been accused multiple times for "lying" about my hair as well.
feelsbadman.jpg
why people in America thinks that curly hair is fake, it's so dumb
I just found this video while going through my own journey. I have 3a curls like you and I can totally understand how it is frustrating and confusing at times. I now have a new understanding on my hair and I actually feel more confident in it. I did a big chop but looking at your hair makes me feel more motivated to keep going. God bless you and your family. ❤️🙏
This was one of the first well explained curl typing videos in my opinion. Yes, every curl type is absolutely gorgeous but its nice to have a general understanding of your own to determine how to better care and which products work best. Thank you so much. Very helpful as I have 2c/3a in the crowd and front area and 4a-bish in the back. The struggle is so real for me.
I'm a guy and I have the same hair as you, my co-workers all think I sleep with rollers on my head, like a lady from the 20s
Guys with curls make my panties fall

Nobody would be offended by the original comment, c'mon now
My curls are very similar to yours😉😁 as far as I can tell(still in transition). I have 2c/3a curls. My 2 year old daughter has 3b curls. I stopped straightening my hair for her. I want her to grow up loving and embracing her curls.
alejandra aguilar That’s so amazing!! I love that you want to be that example for your daughter. She’ll appreciate that when she gets older I bet 😊💕
Yes!!! Thanks for the informative videos!! 💗💗💗
Awwww that’s beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
alejandra aguilar this is the cutest comment ever, my mom always wears her hair straight i wish she would wear her curls
@@danielaflores that's exactly what I am talking about. My mom also has curly hair. She doesn't hate her hair but there is some type of negativity about it and I don't want my daughter to experience that.😁💗
it was so validating to hear you talk about your 3A curls!! I just came back from getting a bad hair cut from a curly hair salon and I just didn’t know what to think. I’m just starting to take care of my hair texture and I have the exact same ringlets as you on my bangs but the rest of my hair is like 2B/ 2C. I was about to finally convince my self that I just have waves.
I have the same 2C/3A hair type, and I nearly cried with the validation “feels” when you were talking about people not understanding it. I’ve had the SAME comments ~ and I’ve been a licensed Cosmetologist since 1992…. Thank you for helping me not feel alone.
Im a mix of 2c,3a and 3b😍 i love my hair especially when i started realizing that curly hair is beautiful and that i don’t need straight hair❤️ People who have curly hair are blessed😍❤️
Me too, exactly the same! Wish I found out earlier, but it's never too late :)
@@YesJellyfish true personally no one understands my curls NOT EVEN MY MOM AND DAD WHO GAVE MY IT😂😂😂
I want curly hair😭😭😭😭they are way tooo straight i have to always put them in braids😥😥😥
@@gaganmann6214 let it out, let it all out straight hair matters too. When I was younger I wanted straight hair but I learned to love my curls. Love you beautiful straight hair😊
It took me shaving my head to figure out that straight hair is over rated
My hair is 2c without any products, but when i add my curling cream it becomes spiral instead of s shapes and im just like *surprised pikachu*
My hair is type 2c 3a and 3b but it used to look better I straightened my hair for like 7 years so it will take a while to get it to look better.
What products do you use?
Which curling cream do you use?
@@heavenkibra5758 i use shea moisture curl and style milk when my hair is soaking wet and then i brush it in, and then i scrunch tje water out. i dont towel dry or microfiber thingy out i find it better to scrunch a lot until tje water is out
@@user-uz5pk4wd4t ^
Just learned last night that I actually have fine, 2B type hair! Almost 23 years of life and I had absolutely no idea but I'm so excited to explore this new part of myself and learn how to have the best waves possible for my hair type! Your video was extremely helpful and informative, I had no idea there are SO many different and beautiful hair types, thank you!!
It's still early in my curly hair journey, (I've also got a mixture of 2C-3A waves/curls). But after painting my hair so much, I've decided to start all over. I recently got my first diffuser and I can't wait to see where I go from here! ☺
“I feel like my hair type, 3A, is the most difficult curl type for people to understand”
Preach, girl! Preach!
My hair is mainly 3A with 2C and 3C on the wrong places (crown and nape, respectively). So most people think my hair is either wavier or curlier than it actually is (depending on my patience on the day for styling it).
I feel ya. I call my hair 3A but it'll be anywhere from 2B to 3B. Drives me nuts
ı understand ya
I have the exact type of hair! I used to have 3A-3C all over but after having babies it changed. Now it's exactly your description.
I have 2c-3a hair, and I love that my hair is so versatile, curly on day one and wavy on day 2. I love that I can wear multiple ways.
I'm exactly the same!
Same here amiga
same!!
me too!! i always thought i had “shit” hair but i just wasnt treating it properly!
Same here!
3c / 4a
I’m so excited to start my journey!
I felt your rant in my soul! You are now officially the first beauty RUclipsr I’ve subscribed to. You’re right that those charts are mostly worthless. Thank you for this video!
My hair is mostly 3a around the hairline with ringlets and 2c at my crowns (yes, I have two of them). Then there are a few 3b curls mixed in just for fun and confusion. I started learning about my hair as a teen, but here I am 25 years later and still learning. I have just recently been able to say I love my hair - I was always so frizzy but with good care and good product, I like being unique now.
It’s not just 3A curls, us wavies get accused of the same thing and get told we just need to brush out hair
Me: *wakes up in the morning after washing my hair the night before* OoH my hair is CuRlY!! So PRETTY!!! (I have like 2b/c/3a curls/waves)
Also me: *doesn’t brush hair to preserve my curls so I can wear is down*
My mom: *approaches from behind with a brush and starts brushing my hair*
Me: *internally screaming*
My mom: *after finishing brushing my hair (it’s now super frizzy)* AwW your hair is so pretty!!!
Me: *decides to just pull my hair back like always*
Anyone else relate to this? No? Just me? Ok.
BIRIOS Is your mom's hair straight?
O. M. G. This is actually me soooo true!!!!,
sis tell your mom no
Set a boundary with your mom about not brushing your hair. If she doesn't respect it that's a problem.
Woah, my mom doesnt do that but she does want me to brush my hair. So we have compromised, after taking a shower at night I brush my hair and put product in it which means in the morning I dont have to brush it I just need to put product in it
3c/4A Low Porosity Hair Type. I just love my curls all the way around.
My daughters is a 3A/3B Low Porosity. I love the bounce of her floppy curls & the ease of manageability 😍✨
Your hair is beautiful. My hair used to be probably a 2a, and 2b but I straightened it all the time, and curled it sometimes with a curling iron.
now since I had chemo my hair is 3c and I am trying to get used to the change. It’s been quite the shocking change for me. Just glad to be done with cancer treatments, and trying to have fun with trying different things on my new hair.
I have 4a, 3c, 3b and 2c that’s what happens when you’re a mixed kid
me too hahahah
same
Chloe Ballard yup
right
for real
Thank you for this!!!
I have combo 2c and 3a (mostly 2c with ringlets scattered throughout, still early in my curly journey). For years hair dressers would just blow dry my hair straight and recommended flat ironing to get rid of the "messiness". I'm finally taking care of it like I should, and it feels so much healthier! I'm even brave enough at salons now to tell them to leave the waves/curls alone. Watching videos like yours have really helped, so thank you.
Ditto, I have spent my entire life trying to have straight hair and have also just found out how I should be styling my 2A, 2B hair. It is short now but I am letting it grow out and wave and curl all it wants to do! Short styles never worked because I do not have straight hair. So happy information is now out by these talented women on how to take care of our hair.
That's just what my hair does haha. I swear it has a mind of its own.
try going to a specialised curly hair salon if you can find some where you live, theyre life changing honestly and treat your hair exactly how it should be treated, from a fellow 2c/3b :)
what
@@cocomuffin5007 what
I finally found someone with my hair type! 2c 3a is so hard to find product for! I always thought my hair was straight out the shower and I use to finger coil and people would say I used a curling iron but I haven’t! I definitely want to see your routine since we have a similar hair type. Thanks for sharing!
This is my 1st video of yours and it was so helpful. I've lost almost all my cuddle so now that I have a curly haired daughter i don't know how to take care of her hair. Thank you for making my this video, she has your hair. Can't wait to see how you take care of your hair. I want her to accept and love her curls.
I remember seeing a comment on Instagram from a girl who said if you have to “manipulate” your hair with products and diffusing/scrunching, then your hair isn’t naturally curly. And I was like ummmm 😳 that is not correct ma’am 😂
She is soooo wrong! I would love to go product free but I live in a humid environment. Without product I'm Sideshow Bob!! Egads!
Believe me, my hair type went from almost straight to wavy to almost straight again(It's in this state rn), during puberty. No amount of product, defusing and scrunching would give me curls or defined waves that will last more than 10 minutes. Not only do they don't understand curly hair, they also don't understand straight hair 😂😂
Laura Bonengel i had a girl with curlier hair then mine say that to me before
@@brooklynsbaby4367 I have the opposite problem... Haha. I probably 2b or 2c, depends on the day, amount of product etc. But when I straighten my hair... Does it every last NOPE haha. Its why I rarely straighten it because it doesn't stay and as soon as any moisture hits my hair, bye-bye straight.
@@KatyJanex hahah when my hair was wavy I had the same issue, it was okay for like 2-4 hours(if the weather was ok) and then it would turn into a big puff lol
My hair is 2a to 3c i’m rly confused.
Also why is the back of my hair nearly straight and the front is super curly? Does anyone have the same problem?
Riri 102 yes and the top layer of my head is SUPER straight it’s so fucking annoying bc the under layer is 3B
Yes! My hair is kinda thin and the top layer is straight then middle is like 2a then bottom layer is 3a or 3b. I dont know what to do lmao
I have the same type of problem but switched up the back is very curly and the front is wavy/straight
Riri 102 I have the opposite problem where it’s wavy on top and curly underneath but i totally feel you on having way to much range of curl types from 2-3a
Im the opposite
I can't thank you enough! Finally I know my hair type now thanks to you. I've been trying to figure this out for a while now until I saw your video. I'm grateful 😊🌹I have 2C waves and I like that my hair is easy to manage and i like how it looks on me. You are insanely beautiful by the way and your hair is a stunner! 😍
My hair is the same type as yours and I have been doubting my curls because some people told me it was wavy. It used to be 3b, but it changed and now I'm relearning how to style it. Thank u very much, the next time someone doubts my understanding of my own hair, I'm sending this video for them
The curly hair community gate keepers need to go on a permanent vacation.
One time I was talking about my weird curl pattern and some person said I just had straight hair like- not even close- (I’m mostly 2b and 2c)
This.
I hate the people that say, "only (this race) can only have (this hair type)" like shut up! Anyone can have any hair texture! SOOOO many genes play into hair texture. I am a white/Filipino girl (I look straight up white tho) and so many say that my hair isn't real because white people can't have 3c curly hair >:(
@@thesecretnewbie8872 I'm indigenous, and I have straight hair - except for a tiny area that has coils. I'm guessing my hair only had one mutation to go from Original Out of Africa coils to straight, so something happened and voila! Coils!
Adalwolfa actually. Black people can have any type of hair type 1-type 2. And yes anyone can have a 4c type texture but that doesn’t make your curl pattern is 4c. It just means ur texture is 4c. You can have a 4c like texture and have wavy hair. It just depends.
The root of my hair is straight but the bottom is like 2b/2c
My roots are 2b but my ends are 3a/3b
omgggg same
Same
Sameee
Slytherin Girl Yes!! Same.
you have made me feel so understood !!!!! my hair is straight when it’s wet and people tell me i’m lying and don’t have curly hair. it’s super fine so it gets weighed down EASY. my hair ranges from 2c to 3b but most of my head is 3a. love this video 💕💕
OMG! Thank you for this explanation! I have seen, heard, and read people talking about curl types, but I had no idea what that was. Curl types weren't really a thing when I was growing up in the 60s and 70s. Either your hair was straight or curly. That was how hair was defined back then. LOL! I'm new to curly hair. After losing over 3/4 of my thick hair to illness, all the hair that grew back, grew back very thick, very wavy and curly. Now, I know my new hair type is between 2C and 3A. The problem with styling my hair, though, is that the old hair that didn't fall out is now thin and is 2A. Because this hair is intermingled with my wavy/curly hair, it makes it challenging for me to style, especially since I'm so new to this curly hair and trying to style it. Your tutorial/explanation was the best I've seen! Thank you!!
6:42 For the people who think she did her curls off camera, As a person with curly hair, they always get straight by the water, its like that for every type of hair. When it dries it gets into your hair type shape.
Not always. My niece has 3c curls and her hair hangs in thick wet spirals even when it's sopping. Same with the youtuber who led me to this video. Still curlier than mine on a good hair day, straight out of the shower.
My hair is literally never straight and it can be annoying sometimes
My curls get weighed down by water, but it's very obvious my hair is curly. It doesn't ever look straight.
My hair is pretty wavy when it’s wet, but I brush it, so it dries almost completely straight. The back section is turning wavy for some reason.
I have a question. All my life I've had straight, fine hair, but ever since puberty hit, the undeparts of my hair are wavy ((2a maybe?)) but then the rest of it is frizzy. How do I take care of new wavy hair to make sure it's healthy, do I need gel? I need so much help, I'm not used to this. I can barely scrunch my hair when it's wet and it makes a curl kinda thing, idk. I brush it when it's wet, it STAYS straight, so I'm very confused, I really need help...
Mine is 2a,2b,2c,3a really just matters if my hair is working with me that day
Lol
same im also recovering from heat damage though so IDK
Lmao same.
yeahhhh me too. it's like a surprise every time it dries
Same!

That's what Deva curls does

@REALVIOLETSAREVIOLET whats your problem??
Ur right, I don't know 😂
I have 3a curls and that whole thing about people thinking you’ve curled your hair with a curling iron is so true!!! I don’t know why people think that but I love when my curls get chunky and then I have to separate them but I’m always experimenting with different creams and I just need help with finding the right product to keep my hair defined and not so weighed down and with little frizz
thank you so much for this video 😭 im just starting to learn about my curly hair and the way youre describing the differences is really easy to understand!
I am a 73 yr old woman with 2c blonde, fine, thin hair. My hair journey has been life long. My first wise choice was to stop straightening the curly hair and embracing it. The second wise choice was moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. The third wise choice was a diffuser on low settings. My latest wise choice is the Denman brush. I have more defined curl, volume, and I can have fresh looking curls for 3 to 4 days with little to no effort. I use a silk pillowcase. Thank you for these videos that really educate us on our God gifted curls.
My curl type ranges between 2B and 3A. I love that it's healthy, glossy and soft, with lots of bounce, especially in the ends! I do want to get better at giving it more volume, though, as it's rather flat, on the top.
Jilleyful Same!!
girlll I have 3A curls and my hair is damaged and now it looks all frizzy and unhealthy...sooo plz tell me what products you use bc i need it so bad plz and thank you :))
@@raeannacanela303 It depends what your hair is like. Is it dry, oily, thick, thin, etc? Mine is fairly thin, but coarse, and more on the oily side. Definitely not dry! It loves protein and hates too much moisture. I use the new Pantene curl and volume lines, including their curl cream, which I use as a leave in, along with Cake mousse and Herbal Essences gel. Again, though, if you have a different type of hair than I do, it will respond differently.
DUDE SAME IT’S SO ANNOYING LIKE PLEASE CURL UP THERE. SAME WITH THE BACK LIKE SOME DAYS IT’LL BE LIKE SO FLAT IN THE BACK
as a middle eastern girl, my hair type is the mix of 2a, 2b, 3a, and 3c im freakin confused
Me too
it's possible to have multiple types!! sounds really cool
lilén i think thank you:) but it’s really hard to keep it in shape
Guurl im middle eastern too & i have the same mix as u
SAME
Babe, first of all you are GORGEOUS! But thank you so much for this! I was actually seeking videos to take care of my daughter’s hair properly and learn new styles . Realized I had no idea what hair type she has. I learned a ton and you helped tremendously with pictures as reference! I was so confused reading online. So now I know her hair is mostly 3b with a little 3c. And I’m 2b2c. Had no clue. thank you! ❤
Thank you so much for this video !! You helped me out tremendously, I’m for sure 3B with some 3C pieces and I love the fact that I have volume no matter what.. that’s never my struggle!!
My hair is 4c and I love how versatile it is it can be curly, straight , short , or long depending on how I decided to style it that day and my fraviote part about my hair is how big it gets when I fluff it out 😊😇💋👄💖👍
omg it’s so pretty when it’s fluffed out, like the volume is incredible
oh im so glad you love your hair!! its such a special part of you and I feel like people so often hate their hair for how curly it is. your hair is absolutely beautiful 💖💖💖
YESSS! THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY U HAVE NO IDEA! I'm so tired of these girls complaining about their hair and always comparing it to mine -_- I don't understand what's wrong with 4c hair? It's so fucking fluffy and soft how can u not love it??
I'm a 2C/3A. I LOVE the 4s. Fascinated by how 4s style their hair. Gorgeous!
People really say you have straight hair? That's crazy.
@Angelique rules! that's just crazy. Makes you wonder how people see things so differently or pretend to.
@@amberpowell2609 because for them, curly = Black kinky hair
Angelique rules! My hair is curly, all over. A lot of younger kids think my hair is just completely straight, NO.
Its straight textured
It is crazy. People thinks like someone is white or beige they can't have natural curly hair and their roots are too good to be true. The same with native/indiana/taíno type of people, like they're dark, is impossibles for them to have hair type between 1a-2a.
Super late, but just started my curly hair journey, in April of this year. My hair is 2C, and 3A. I love going through the process of taking care of my hair, and seeing my curls flourish! It can be tiring, but it’s rewarding!
wow, you are gorgeous! I'm so glad you made this video, I don't think anyone has ever talked about hair types with me and I'm in my 30's, I also have 3a/2c hair that is straight when wet and poofy curly once dry. I love my curls, they are so flexible, I can straighten if I want to or keep it wild
I was looking up curly hair videos because of my daughter and I came across this one. SO helpful!!! She is only 3, but she has beautiful wavy/curly hair, and I wanna make sure I take good care of it ❤️ I think she’s a 2c/3a mix bc she has some “sidewalk chalk” spirals as well as waves. I’m so jealous of all you curly girls! If you have natural curls, embrace them! I’d give anything to have them!! 😍
Ashley H. Same! My daughter just turned a year old and her hair is staring to come in thicker and longer. Since I have “1” type (pin straight hair) I’m trying to find advice on how to nurture her curls. It’s really hard to find good videos for fine, Caucasian hair type curls.
Tara 907 Yea wavy/curly hair care is new to me! I’m a 2a at best if I really scrunch it up! 😂 But her hair is so beautiful, I wanna make sure to nurture her curls like you said! I’ve been using devacurl shampoo and conditioner on it, and I can tell a major difference in how bouncy and smooth her curls are since I’ve switched over!
Exactly why I'm here as well! My little girl will be 3 in October and get hair is getting so curly! Trying to figure out how to keep it healthy so she doesn't have to repair the damage once she's older.
I used cantu care for kids . my older have lots of different types of curls in her hair and it is dry. Cantu works well in her hair . still have a little dryness at the back. I am still looking to fix that problem but everything is good. I hope that helps
Ashley H. when ı was little ı was depressed and cried all nights bc ı had curly hair😅😅
I have 4b/c hair and it's really thick
I have a round fro when it's out
I love my fro
That sounds so f pretty😍😍
@@JJ-jh5tn thank you
@@kev8006 your welcome😊☺
Yeah I have a 4a/4b and I literally always wear an afro and it is life lol
kevii lewis fros are great
Thank you SOO MUCH for telling us what product each type uses 😭 !!
Thanks for the clear explanation of curl types
Yes talk about porosity in another video lol
i’ve just revived my curls lmao. i haven’t had them since i was like 9 and i’m 16 now, i’ve been taking way better care of my hair. i’ve gone from 2a to 2c:)
Can you tell me how you do that because I’m pretty sure my hair is dead and I just want to know how I can revive it again 😂 my hair is like a 2a right now and should be a 2c :(
Yeah from age 7 my curls started going away and then I found a brand that worked really well for me and my 3a curls are back
Omg same! People legit thought I got a perm 😂🦁
@@meilani3164 If your hair feels dead you may have to cut it a few times and baby your scalp with some special products.
There was something in the water where I used to live that was killing my hair. Losing large clumps in the shower and it wasn't really growing either. For a few years I cut my hair really short ( almost shaved) and concentrated on restoring the roots. My sister found a cleansing conditioner by Ren Pure Solutions that I use 6 days a week on my hair and once a week I use a shampoo called Generic Tea Tree oil shampoo. It's made for getting impurities out of the scalp. Once I towel dry my hair, I use a few drops of OGX coconut miracle oil and work it through my hair.
It's taken a few years, but my hair is almost completely restored to what it should be.Btw my hair is 2c/3a. I hope this will help. 🤗
Proud!
I have been wanting to do the CGM for soooo long but I have been struggling to figure out what hair type I have. I always thought, based on the curl charts, that my hair was a mix of type 2s and type 3s.. but after watching your video my hair makes total sense! It’s a type 2 mix!! I am so excited to finally be able to move forward with this method now that I understand my hair a little better. I am definitely going to look into density and porosity, too, because I might be mistaken about my hair in those categories, too!!!
I love all curly hair types. I find so much beauty in ALL hair types, even straight hair. I love to look at the uniqueness of each hair type and I love seeing the different ways that people style their curls. I am not sure exactly what I love about my hair type specifically, but I think I’ll say that I am loving learning about it. I am hoping to actually be able to love my own hair once I figure out how to live with it!!!
my hair is 3b and i am so confident now in knowing what products and how to contain and talk about my hair love you and thank you
i relate to every 3A scenario you had me DYING 💀💀💀 they don’t UNDERSTAND my hair type
so true! im always like yeah its natural... they are like NOOO YOU definitely CURL IT HOW COME ITS STRAIGHT IN THE SHOWER?
What's annoying is when having 3A I get 2C and sometimes 3B going on at the same time. My hair has NO idea what it wants to be.
M Sings exactly
@@Nessainthebuilding omg same i feel like i have something between 2C and 3A smh
Same
I have 3A curls and a girl at my gym was like “how do you make your hair looks so healthy although you curl it everyday” and I’m just like: ;-;
Update:
(A year later)
So, um…I now have 3B and 3C and 4A hair…idk what’s happening. It might be my teenage hormones Changing? Idkkk 😭
Haha I used to get that a lot back then. Or people would say "do you have to wake up really early to get your hair like that?" And I'll be like umm no I wake up like this everyday. But idk what happened to my hair, my curls started going away after I started dyeing my hair.
Like Beyonce said " i woke up like this "
Same most of the time my hair is straight and wavy because before bed I put in a ponytail but one day I didn't and one girl in school is just like woaa did u make ur hair I'm like nope and she's like for reaaaal! O and my curl type is like 2c and 3a
@@ashdev862 hey I know this is old but if you haven't try protein heavy products and olaplex 3. Ofc keep up deep conditioning.
omg totally saaaaame
This was super helpful. I had no idea where my natural curls fit into as far as size. Looks like my hair has 2b, 2c, and 3a curls. Thank you.
Thanks so much for this video! It's helped me to figure out my curl type/s. I believe I have a mixture of 2b to 3a curls. I'm starting to love my curls again and are trying my best to take care of them, even if they are up all day due to working in a lab!
I have 3A and 3B but I’m recovering from heat damage :(
me too! ive been transitioning for almost a year, almosttttttt thereeeee
I'm transitioning too. My hair is dry, frizzy and overall, I've just lost some of my curls.
I have that hair but I’ve never straightened it😂 i still don’t know what to do with it
I'm transitioning too.
I so regret doing keratin at eight fucking years old I really hope my hair recovers from that
I feel like my hair doesn't fall into any of these curl patterns 😞
Maybe you have a mixture of the these types! I have a mix of 4a and 4b so sometimes I have no idea what my hair is doing some days.
@Shianne Saylor on the day i wash it is around a 2c and a little 3a here and there. on the day after a wave-like 2a. the day after a voluminous straight with a wave on the bottom. lmao idek.
Mine is an absolute identity crisis. I have from 2a in the front to 4a in my underneath layers. I have mostly a 3a so I have to pick one type to cater to.
MUCH LOVE TO YOU!❤
I personally adore my curly hair and finding its type made me even more stoked about it!!
Also thank you for your message! ;)
Since wearing my hair natural, I love seeing the different curl patterns
I had ringlets as a child, like Shirley temple all over, and then my hair grew and the weight pulled the curls out to waves. I have really thick hair, 3.5 inches in diameter thick when in a ponytail, and it would tangle easily, so my mother and grandmothers solution , neither of them having my hair type, would be to rip through my hair to get all the knots out. My hair went frizzy and pouffy after that, and stayed that way until I was 17, when I cut my hair to a pixie, and then it grew back wavy, 2b, and I learned about curly and wavy hair styling and it got curlier and curlier until now, 2b-3a hair, it’s still changing and adapting so who knows, I may get back to that Shirley temple ringlet
Update? I really hope your hair got even healthier :)
Same!!! I had ringlets when I was little and now after brushing it every day it is wavy/curly. I'm currently trying the curly girl method to see if I can go back to the way it used to be.
Hormones have a big effect on hair texture, coarseness, thickness and curl pattern. It will change throughout your life!
I have the exact same story!! We're in this journey together
Exactly but now I just have a salad from 2a to 3a and I hateee it
I have some type A waves, especially at the front of my head. Weather and humidity are a major factor in bringing them out. In the past professionals have styled a full head of waves/curls using the right product and a diffuser. My daughter started puberty early and her hair got very curly. Finally brought her to a curly hair salon yesterday. She's got 3C, 3B and some 2C in the mix at present. We'll see how her hair progresses now we will start caring for her hair properly. This was a very, very helpful video!
Oh my gosh! FINALLY! I have your curl type!! And my hair does the exact same thing where I have 2c waves on the bottom and 3a curls on top. It’s so hard to understand and honestly kind of hard to deal with!! I have been struggling with finding the right routine for my hair. I am going to watch your videos. Thank you!!
I have a jungle of curls and waves on my head....send help and cream 😂
Natalie Clark 😂
Natalie Clark same
Mine too.. And its noottt pretty☹️😟
People really be saying your hair is straight...do they have eyes 😂
Natural J Girl, if you saw the comments on my videos...mostly on my older ones, you would be surprised lol 🤦🏼♀️
Right, lol??
When wet dumdum.
omg thank you for explaining the 3A curls! I have the same as you a mixture of 2c and 3A curls and I have had sooo many people think or tell me that I've gotten a perm or ask if I curled my hair to make it look like that and I'm just like no some product and air dry! haha. Loved your video
I thought I was the only one with more than one hair type! You helped me so much and I totally get the wet hair thing!
"what about this looks straight to you"
*laughs in curly haired gay*
Lmao
S A M E
SAME😌
Same lmao
An eternal mood
