Yep, that's 4c hair. I've learned in my natural journey that if you want definition PLENTY of product has to be used daily unless you're cool with rocking a tight dry afro.😩
She worked her hands on defining those curls bruh. If I rake mine 4-5 times and no curls start poppin I deem it as an epic fail. Seems I need to b more patient n work harder to get this kinda definition
@@360withlatrisha7 it is actually easier to shingle when the hair is dripping wet bc the moisture helps the hair strands clump together to form the curls. And shea butter is just as good!
Aww this vid was so positive! Love how you started off calling your undefined state “kinky and lovely;” sometimes I forget to love that natural, completely unaltered unstyled state of my hair because that’s how God made me! ❤️
Elilta Productions hello... do you mind following my natural journey? Here’s a link to my latest video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5FmlrQpv9ac.html
Great to see so many women claiming christ as their lord and savior. I wanted to leave some scriptures about the one church. Ephesians 4:4-5: There is one body and one Spirit- just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call- 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism. Colossians 1:18 tells us what the body is- And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. The body is the church and the church is the body. So the right church home is the one that Christ died for, the one that can be found in the bible. Romans 16:16- Salute one another with a holy kiss the churches of Christ salute you. The church of christ is the one true church, God bless you.

I subscribed firstly because of the scripture, the background music, your peaceful vibe that is apparent, and finally the fact that you showed me something I can do with my hair tomorrow lol!
I tried this today and my hair looks way different without the shrinkage. Thank you so much for this video because I finally have something I can do with my hair.❤️❤️
Thank you so much for this video! I can’t believe it took me this long to find hair texture and curl pattern like mine. What I could achieve with shingling (first time I’ve heard of this technique) is AMAZING!!!🎊
I love your video. Btw, we have the same hair type. It’s not 4C. Not just because of the curl pattern but the way it reacts to water and products. It’s a mix of 4A and 4B.
John Doe the hair typing is for the curl size. Her hair curls and is more reminiscent of 4a/4b.. she probably has a higher porosity (not high, just higher than low) as well since her hair absorbed the products so well.
Her hair is Definitely 4c. I get the same results using bentonite clay and shingling with a custard. The shrinkage in the thumbnail is what shrunken 4c looks like when it gets past collarbone length.
Then hunni your hair isn't 4c. Just because your dry hair looks like it doesn't have much curls doesn't make you 4c. It could just be the environment surround your hair. This girl clearly has crotchet needle size s curls (4a) and z curls (4b). Look on people like chizi duru and vivian Jamaica (two totally different 4c hair) , no matter what they do, they won't have this size coil because 4c curls/waves are either extremely tight/small or almost straight looking . They will get definition but not the texture or coil/curl size seen here
4c is such a beautiful/perfect curl. I honestly cannot believe how pretty it is up close like this. I have 2c hair-legit no comparison. I LOVE your channel.
I am impressed. This is the absolute best wash and go twist--whatever you want to call it, I have ever seen for us sisters with "soul" 4C tight-ass hair. Thank-you, thank- you for posting this. I am definitely going to share this. 😍💕👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Love the video girl! 🗣🗣 there is a difference between curl pattern and texture people. Most 4c hair RU-vidrs have coarse texture but there is a such thing as a silky 4c and we always get left out. Also porosity makes a difference because 4c hair can be defined but needs to be super moisturized to have this definition which is hard when your super low porosity the products do not easily go into the stand to create that definition it just sits on top for example i went to nappy fu wash n go that played right after this and saw the LOC process sitting on top of the strand when she applied them
Your hair is beautiful! I am finally embracing my natural hair and am constantly searching for different ways to style it. I am going to give this routine a try.
I Am Lewa I guess hair nazis don't realize that this is what 4c hair looks like when it's SUPER defined as you mentioned in your video. Great job. Your hair hair is so beautiful 😍. New sub👌🏼
EmBeNoein .. I was thinking the same, it seems like your not 4c if you don't have certain hair challenge or unable to get a desirable effect with ease. I have 4c hair and rose water is everything when it comes to hydration I use shea butter n rose water and yes it seems like I'm a 4a when I'm done, give it 2 days without maintenance and I'm a 4z !!!
Absolutely Beautiful💛!! This is by far the best tutorial on 4c hair I've seen thusfore!! It's really giving me courage to do my Big Chop and start my natural hair journey!!! Thank You!!!
Lewa you are stunning, beautiful inside and out. Your presentation is impeccable - the way you present yourself, your makeup, your expressions, and your manner of speaking are a thing of beauty. My hair is exactly like yours. Thank you for the tutorial. You are the best Sharon C.
My dear beauty, I have exactly your hair type. My hair gets super defined curls the moment it hits water, conditioner or moisturing cream. The different between 4c and 4b hair is that 4c looks like cotton when in contact with water but 4b hair becomes very well defined curls when in contact with water.. believe me I had thought in the past that I was 4c but no I was told that I am 4b. Spritz water on your clean hair without products and see how your hair would react. That's when you will know if you have 4c or 4b. Simple experiment
Edith Wrilliyana isn’t it super annoying!!! Ughhh like stop please!!! Our hair is BEAUTIFUL!! Just embrace your curl pattern, whatever that may be sheesh
Edith Wrilliyana, SO TRUE!!! When did they come up with this "type" system anyways? All any girl can really do is try a product or a method and see if it works for her hair. But to not try something because it's not your "type" of hair is such a mistake. I remember an older black lady telling me she would NEVER put balsam in her or her daughters' hair because balsam was for white people. I had been using balsam for years and it had done wonders softening and detangling my hair! Boy, did she and her daughters miss out on a good thing!!
Edith Wrilliyana ,there is no need for you to be critical. Lewa specifying her hair type helps people with the similar curly patterns that have extreme shrinkage (type 4) figure out a good way to elongate our curls. Porosity and density are important, that’s why she constantly encourages people to find products that work for their hair because everyone’s hair is different. She also emphasized this at the end when she said everyone’s curls aren’t going to come out like hers.
Thank you for this! Doing the twists and keeping them in until they dry is the ONLY way I've been able to achieve a succesful wash and go. I think the twists allow the curls to properly set undisturbed.
I truly loved this video, and what I loved most is your music choice. Sometimes I have to mute these videos because of the music. Nevertheless, I like this video because my hair texture is similar to yours. Now if I can just get the length that you have, that would be AWESOME SAUCE. Keep making videos and God Bless.
Crystal Alexander hi Crystal!! Thank you so much! 😊 I agree with you, sometimes I mute some videos too!! I am sure your hair will grow, just give it time 😃. Thanks for watching this video!
Wow. So nice that people put so much effort to care for their hair and figuring out what type it is. -- I enjoy watching your video, the same as I enjoy watching people exercise. I feel good. ... mean time, I just let my hair be clean, healthy-ish and wild.
Your supposed to type hair after its freshly washed and begins to dry. you can look 4A with 3 products in it while it's wet and 4c when it's product free and dry. bottom line is we all are still learning. the video was great especially your music, vibe and overall positivity. I Think you are mixture of 4b and 4c. I loved the video and the scripture bless up
My hair like hers gets super defined curls whenever it touches water or moisturing cream. Beauty dear you are not 4c, you are 4b. The different between 4c and 4b is the moment ithey touches water. 4c looks like cotton when it hits water but 4b curls up when touches water. Beautiful hair but not 4c.
Majority of your hair is 4a not 4c 4a curls are size of pensprings 1/8th of an inch in diameter 4c curls are 1/16th of a inch in diameter which is extremely small. A real 4c RU-vidr is ProtectivePrincess her 4c curls defined are way smaller. So many people confuse 4a curls with 4c. Technically all of them frizz up and puff but the curl sizes are different.
Your hair is absolutely gorgeous! I don’t know why it’s annoying to see ppl in the comment section try to tell you what type of hair you have! Y’all if she says she has 4c that’s that it’s not up for debate
Thank youuuu sooooo much! I'm a new subscriber. I appreciate seeing how to get this look without gel, since I'm having allergic reactions to so many products. Yaaaaayyyyy! 😍🙌🏿👍🏿❤
P.s. I've decided to subscribe.... after watching the video i thought, wow... taking extra care of my hair can be my new calming hobby. I usually want to rush, but I enjoyed the zen like vibe you give. I'll try it. Big hug from NYC... from a gal that went natural bc she just didn't want to bother with salons, wash and be wild was my motto.
I love ur video n I love how ur just calm that’s the piece of God over u. May God continue to bless u first RU-vidr that I i c acknowledge God. U go girl. I subscribed.
I've yet to try this for myself yet but it's looking promising! I kept seeing tutorials involving eco style gel, but was put off after watching some other videos of people saying it ruins their hair /: so it's good to actually see a tutorial not involving any gel whatsoever!
It is 4c, but easier to achieve with longer hair. I wouldn't see any curls on my hair either when it was shorter, now I just run into strands of defined curls when I'm detangling it.
Maureen Wahu well my sister has 4c hair down her back and I have tried multiple times to define hers with multiple methods and it doesn’t look like that🤷🏾♀️idk Maybe it’s because the porosity and hair density difference.
I am so happy that I found your video. This is better than gel. I tried the tgin butter cream daily moisturizer for my wash-n-go and it gave me the same result, I love it.
Thank you so much for this video! I didn't think this was possible on 4c hair! Definitely trying it. Quick one though, it is ok to add gel for extra hold?
yall this is not 4c... you need to zoom in to see 4c curls, you can see those curls from a distance. 4c hair can be defined, but it won't look like that.
SBLACKW C Your acting like 4c hair can’t be defined well guess what THATS 👏🏾 4c 👏🏾 HAIR PERIODT not no 4a or 4b 4a would be way looser maybe a little bit of 4b but I still see 4c and just because it’s defined doesn’t mean it’s not 4c because when I define my 4c hair it looks 4a
@@nelly5054 it can be defined but it can't be that loose. My hair is tighter than hers but it's still not 4c. 4c doesn't have a clear consistent patter. Although most hair has a mix of different textures, 4c is almost completely mixed in with different patterns of hair but each pattern is more of a zig zag with a few actual curls. Look it up. Also if your hair looks like 4a then it is 4a. People can get confused about texture because when we wash our hair it looks like it 4c when it isn't. Once the curls have been defined then you are able to tell your actual pattern. And yours is 4a my friend.
First i just love, love the music. All praises to the Most High. Your hair is absolutely beautiful and i just love the process. Its amazing how much length you have. I will definitely try this. Thank you.
You are truly a Beautiful Women inside and out!!! Thanks for the hair tips...we have very similar hair and I also love The Mane Choice Products. Especially the Ancient Egyptian Line.. I adore the 24K Glistening Gold Twisting Gel. Keep giving your excellent tips. I just subscribed today.
