How to find your hair type. Can you tell hair types 4b and 4c apart? In this video I’m going to talk about about the different hair types. In particular determining the difference between type 4a 4b and 4c hair types. Then I’ll take my research and look at the strands of my hair to determine my own hair type. I'll be using the modified Andre Walker hair typing chart to compare. There will be pictures of each hair type and video footage of my hair strands against the hair chart. I hope you this helps you find your own hair type!

To know the real results go get your hair done at a beauty shop they will guide you and tell you what products to use because everyone can’t use the same products it can damage your hair or stomp the growth or if your hair stays the same length all year round and no results you’re using the wrong products in your hair and it cause damage to it but if you got her hair in the video you need hydration moisturizers in your hair to grow no sulfate shampoos not good for the hair you will see results and hair growth you need hydration spray like oil sheens hydration sprays and hydration conditioners to the hair and follow the directions if it say leave in 5 mins rinse out do it don’t leave it in longer better results and hair protect styles

@bandaqueenlove9134 3 года назад

I would love to see how 4b looks wet and defined I really feel like no one truly knows how 4b hair looks like. Sometimes I can't even tell if some of my curls are 4b or 4a because when it's wet and it dries it tightens. Also, of course, texture and curl pattern should not be interchangeable. That's why people always assume 4a is only silky which is far from true it can look exactly like 4c texture-wise, but the pattern is ofc different. Also, I feel like that's why the 4c hair mislabeling isn't always intentional or malicious. Many still thinks 4c hair has the "tightest texture" which is false it has the tightest curl pattern. That's why anyone who has an afro and has very kinky hair is already categorized as 4c (or thinks they do). As Nappyheadedjojoba said, texturism existed wayyy before hair typing and I wholeheartedly agree

This whole number system is just another way to determine what’s “good” or “bad”. Hair is as unique as a fingerprint and no two people will have the same. This typing system is just a way for product companies to target a certain groups and make money

@cindychristian1700 3 года назад

I believe Oprah Winfrey's hairdresser, Andre Walker, came up with the chart but black women's hair texture was not originally a positive focus on it! It only featured 1a to 2b or 2c for his hair care line then as the texures increased he basically said 4c hair should be relaxed for different hairstyle options! Our textures 3a to 4c were not included for his hair product line which was for straight hair. I don't think the chart was meant to confuse or for hair texturism but I'm not sure what it was for because our hair was not originally featured on it for style and care options! I'm finding the longer my 4c hair gets the harder it is to care for so I might straighten or relax it but I don't think my hair is less valuable than a less curlier texture! I guess some people have hair hierarchy in their minds for some reason!

My mother had been relaxing my hair twice a year since the age of 7 years old. I'm now 44 years old. Six years ago, I decided to do the "Big Chop" because I wanted to embrace my natural texture. I was also ashamed of the fact that in all my like, I'd never known my natural hair. After going crazy with ✂️ in my bathroom. I found that my natural hair is 4 A, according to this chart . It's sooo beautiful!!! And qleasy to manage.

@LaToyaEbonyHair 3 года назад

Hey Loves! I wanted to create a resource for those of you struggling with "getting your hair to coil or curl". I've gotten so many disheartening messages about not being able to get the results you want with your hairstyles, so I hope those of you who are 4b hair types can rest assured in the fact that there is NOTHING wrong with your hair! Sometimes hydration isn't the answer!. As we learn more about our beautiful hair, I hope this gives 4c and 4b naturalists some clarity. PICTURES HERE: bit.ly/3ctMGQB Still working on finding 4b hair defined to put on the blog. 😉

@jkgolden6143 3 года назад

This was really informative thanks I definitely thought 4 b was a looser coil than 4c... Looks like I mostly have 4c hair with some 4a mixed in at the edges and nape Y is it that many 4c naturals have 4a around the nape ? So interesting

@jasmines6133 11 месяцев назад

Sometimes it's because that is the hair that is most susceptible to stretching and manipulation through the styles that we wear (ponytails, heat, etc) which over time can alter the hair. Other times it's bc that's how our hair is naturally textured.

@travelgirl7967 3 года назад

Hair typing is essential for finding content. I went from 4C to 3C after chemo in 2020. Some go from type 1 to 2or3. They're called chemo curls. Turns out you can go from type 4 to 3. I was natural for 10 YEARS and maxed at 12 inches!! Now I'm only 8 months since hair started growing back and it's already 4 inches. It's still fine in texture, low density and high porosity as before. I can comb it with my fingers, it doesn't get tangles and knots at the end like my 4c hair did so I predict it will be easier for me to retain length this time.

@babygirl_likestochewgum Год назад

I think that's just because when your hair gets longer the texture loosens, so you can go from 4a to 3c... but what do I know

@lynnhams7723 Год назад

@@babygirl_likestochewgum I do not think so. She just said her hair reached 12 inches and it was still 4c before chemo. Afterwards, it is now 4 inches which is shorter than before chemo.

This is true, before my mom passes im 2012 it happened to her during chemo treatment. All her 4B/C hair fell out, but when it started growing again it was bone straight. I thought she was exaggerating until I seen it with my own eyes. Chemo made her go from type 4 hair to 1.

And Yes, my hair shrinks like crazy!!!🤗😂 Though somewhere around BSL, she shrinks up to my scalp when I let her dry (and she needs about 2 days to be fully dry, but the shrinkage is immediate😭) without any other form of stretching, and to my chin when I style in twists, and I'm not even kidding !😥 My shrinkage is real, especially in the middle of my head where I think I'm 4C or maybe 4B; I still can't tell the difference between these two, really😅😅😅.

@lindaluiselleyapi3826 2 года назад

Same with me too. When I moisturize my hair it shrinks so bad. But to stretch it, I never use heat on my hair because I'm scared to damage it. I rather do the African stretching style by cutting my hair into medium sections and roll the hair yarn around up to the tip of my hair. When I remove the hair yarn the following day, my hair is beautifully stretch and I can do any hair style I want.

@adaminflux 3 года назад

Well the man who initially created the chart said people with 3c+ (I think he called it nappy or wooly or something, he didn’t say 3C-4C) should relax their hair. He didn’t include those types because in his mind hair is only acceptable when it is of a looser texture. So the chart doesn’t make sense because 3C onward were added by other people who weren’t really working from the initial creator’s framework. Also this chart does not encapsulate every hairtype imaginable, and as Latoya stated it does not consider things that affect the appearance of hair like texture, shine, density, strand thickness, etc. The chart doesn’t even mention that the shape of hair follicles is what determines the amount of curl a strand will have. Ultimately this hair typing system isn’t exact science and you should essentially treat it with great skepticism, especially if what you’re hair looks like doesn’t match what is presented in the chart.

Thank you for helping me, at times I feel so in between n sometimes even left out… I truly want to find products perfectly for me! I been using Melanin which helped with its health n I also used 4c products which helped with moisture.. I just can never STYLE my hair 😭😭😭 but your personal video helps ALOT because certain parts of mines has its own pattern.. overall I needed this! Lbs

I still like the Hair Typing system for Styling Looks purposes so you can see what a hairstyle could look like.

Thank you for this video! It's very helpful. I big chopped not too long ago and am still trying to figure my hair out. I am pretty sure I'm type 4 but as my hair is growing I think the texture/strands are changing or maybe it's my curls getting longer so they are looking different - unclear. But I am loving this natural hair journey and love watching your content ❤︎

@apara2005 3 года назад

The longer it get the more stretched out the pattern becomes. When my hair was growing I thought I would have the same looking pattern but longer. But I didn't. It just became a tight wave. I just recently cut off a few inches and it's back being tightly coil.

75-80% shrinkage! I'd say the struggle is real but I'm no longer struggling. As soon as I embraced the shrinkage, the coils finally felt free to show up and shine.

🇬🇧🙋🏾‍♀️This was enlightening and reinforced the irrelevance of curl patterns! "4c" (or any other curl pattern) can look differently on different ppl, as you pointed out. We need to focus more on porosity and healthy regular hair routines. My hair is high porosity, low density, 4c. 80% shrinkage! Looser pattern in the nape. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Of all that info the porosity is what drives my hair care ☺️

@trianna2008 3 года назад

I agree with this. Like most other things in life, hair is highly variable and has many factors, even if we correct for styling or technique that can make your hair look widely different from its natural appearance. The hair typing system was most useful for me as a new natural, when the goal was to see what my hair could do. When it comes to seeing what my hair SHOULD do, I pay attention to porosity and other texture related factors (like propensity for single strand knots, etc.) but not curl pattern.

Is it possible for my hair to be 4A but with styling/stretching come to resemble 3C loose curls? Or is my hair not 4A?

@j.elixir6089 3 года назад

Very possible

@furrsmith8131 2 года назад

@@adaminflux your hair isn’t 4A. The more you style especially if it’s a wash and go, the more you see your actual hair. For example, my hair has more coils than when I started wash and gos and softer .

@ninaguy7563 3 года назад

Hi, this video is informative. I have shrinkage to when wash. But as soon as I twisted it's not as shrunken if that makes sense. I have different patterns in my hair too I think my back is more like a 4C it's more tighter and maybe my sides like a 4a or 3b not really sure it's lose on the sides in my front is loose also. That's just what I can see it's tough to know. I have to treat each section different when styling. OMG

Tbh as a licensed cosmetologist. We didn’t study the curl patterns. I don’t know if they do it know (I graduated 2011) we just learned straight, curly and kinky back then.

@michicawilliams8507 Год назад

I love this video and it actually shows my curl pattern my greatest problem is finding products that work for me espicially doing wash n go's it ends up properly shrunk and dry would love some advice on this
