The Ultimate Guide to Discovering Your Hair Type 

As a young black teen going into adulthood soon, I've been trying to figure out what is good for my hair, what will affect my hair and teaching myself how to do my hair so thank you because your videos really help me and inspire me to keep trying even if my hairstyle doesn't come out right the first time🤗❤❤❤ keep it up girl!!!

The fact I've just done my hair😂

Porosity always confused me, thank you for the break down!! I did notice my hair soaks up anything like it’s thirsty. When I use to relax my hair, every stylist would mention that they put down a lot more relaxer than what they see when they go back to a section they worked on first. Even with water/products but the next day it’ll be dry. I’ve been working in applying products to help seal in the moisture, like certain oils.

It took me about 2 years to realize that I need to apply different amounts of product in my hair depending on the section. My front bang/edges area and some in the front/sides are high porosity. It’s typically close to dry within 2-3 minutes. The back of my hair is low porosity and takes FOREVER to dry, especially the back/crown area.

My hair is so thick, it takes 10 min to part a straight part and after soaking it with water, I step away from the flow of water and Lord, it swells back up immediately 😅. It’s gotten much more thicker since following this channel. Thanks BJ❤

I think i have type 4, high porosity, high density, medium thick hair. I used to be so obsessed with the abc delineations but ever since i started wearing mini twists, wash & go's, and stopped doing "low manipulation styles" or "protective styles" with added hair, my hair started growing and I didnt care anymore about what people with 4 a, b, or c hair had to say anymore. I just watch for enjoyment now😂

Man, I thought I just had moderate hair thicknesses, but when I did the strand test, I realized how dark and thick my hair really was! Thank you for this video! It really helped! ~u~/"

Oh my God Justice thank you. I needed this. It'll really help me with my hair journey. I can't express how much this helps. Lots of love❤❤❤❤

The short of you brushing your hair and all that glorious shine is just amazeballs! Your skin is just stunning!

I love your videos sm you inspired to me to start caring for my hair more and motivated me

so glad i found your TT and it brought me here. started my hair journey a year ago i really want to do my best to protect it amd grow it as best as possible

Bless you! You’re a life changer! ❤

Love your channel cuz it has no drama just hair ❤ lots of beautiful hair

Thank you this really helps ❤, also love your hair

Ty, I think my hair type is 3c-4a( im not sure) medium porosity, low-med density, & fine thickness.❤

Thank u ❤ love this video

I LOVE UR HAIRRRRR!!!❤❤❤❤

Great video! First time i actually understood what was going on as far as porosity.

We have similar hair type minus the thickness. I’m 3C/4a, low porosity with fine strands, and medium density. I’ve NEVER dyed my hair, but I want to. I’ve gotten clear/black rinses when I was in HS, but that’s it. Love your channel❣️😘

Your hair is so pretty

Ahhhh I needed this!!!! Thank you so much!!! 😭🫶🏾

Thank you justice!!

Great video 🥰💙

You are absolutely gorgeous. I frfr u look like a angel ❤

Thank you I am learning so much

Thanks for your time

You Able RU-vid Shorts come cause nobody's coming out And we all love you

After watching this I feel that I have corse low porosity 3c-4a hair. Thanks for this. Very helpful

saving this for later when my hair isn’t in braids

I loveee your videos so muchhh❤

This video really helped! Thank you!! I think I have somewhere between 2a and 2b hair, high density, and porosity, and thick!

I think 1c, high porosity, fine, medium density. No idea how the algorithm got me here tbh but I enjoy and appreciate what you do 🎉

I have type 4-C hair and I wear my hair natural and I wear my wigs and weaves. I do what I want and I do not let my hair type be my entire personality nor let it dictate my statue in this world.

This was very helpful. So I have 4a,b,c medium porosity hair with medium density and fine strands. (Though I always thought that the ponytail test was for density, not the thickness of each individual strand.)

When she has a full brushed out afro, she looks like “ Garnet ” from “ Steven Universe ” 👌💖

Just watching some of your shorts gurllllllll!!!!!! Gorgeous beautiful tress!!!!! Love LOVE love love our AFRO!!!!!! STYLISH TRESS!!! ROCK YO TRESS!!!!! IM 4 B 4 C 😊

I love your hair I wish I had the same hair type as you ❤️

in kindergarten i used to get made fun of because i had 4c hair and people stuck pencils in it and i wouldn't notice, then i got tired of the bullying and got it straightened. i really want to show off my nature hair but i'm to afraid i will get made fun of for it. should i change it up and go on my own hair journey to grow it out and let if be healthy? (btw im an 8th grader)

🔥 vid ,very informational I assume I have medium to low porosity hair I took a strand after a wash ,hair still somewhat wet and put it in a glass of water and it floated

Can you make another hair paint video, those slayed. LOVED the black and white combo.

Your Hair is So Pretty 🔥 i have 3 hair types in my hair its loose curls in the back the front is straight and i have some coily hair close to the root area this was really helpful 😊 Thank you 💙💕i have high porosity hair also how can i train my curls without finger coiling ?

Hey, I'm a new subscriber to your channel I am from Jordan 🇯🇴

I’d love for people to do more of the first few listed than finding out two letters. Some say there’s a better way than the curl type system mentioned.

You are so absolutely beautiful!

Thank you so much this helped alot lol😭😭😭

Came here from the big hair short. Just wanted to say I’m white as shit, but I love you hair and am so jealous. Keep keeping it big!

Can you do a video on box braids!?

I have to ease up on the products so I can see it. Obsessed with getting it to do a little of what I want. It is still the boss though

I've been waiting for this since the community post I've been having trouble finding out what my hair type is for the longest

I wish I had hair like you

i love my hair, but it's so thick and heavy i have an undercut on both sides and thin out the back just to take some weight off my head. it's also low porosity and my scalp over produces oil, so that's super fun to take care of lol

Justice! How are you girll, still an icon 😁👏🏾

I just want to say your really pretty and I love your hair, also you remind me of that one character from Steven universe.

Your inspiring

I have a questiooooon! How do you deal with hair strain? Like, if you put your hair into a tight ponytail, how you feel it hurt a bit?

I am a 4c and have thick hair so i have to moisturize at least 2-3 times a day edit but its not rough it feels more like cotton

MISS IS ILLEGAL TO BE SI PRETTY

I still don't know which porosity I have😭 my hair soaks up water rlly fast but takes a medium amount of time to dry and I feel no resistance on my strand of hair💀

You are amazing! I told my teen Daughter to follow you she struggles with high density hair ❤❤❤❤

3c low porosity fine medium density hair

My hair was never low density until I bleached and dyed it one month apart

What a great shampoo and conditioner brand or recipe

Hi new to your content I was wonder I have curly hair not the same as yours does a bonnet work for all curly hair types I just got a perm for the first time and I wanted to protect it while sleeping

Omg how do you get your hair like that. Because if I try to do my hair like that when it drys it just goes really frizzy and sometimes I just want more defined curls. 😊

So I think my hair type is 3a/b with high porosity, high density, and medium thickness. (The profile picture is kinda old and I straightened my hair back then

You are beautiful ❤️❤️

Oh I’m early early🤭🤭🤭 (first)

Hi, can you make another hair paint video, I LOVED the black and white one. Also, people shouldn’t be asking you to cut of you hair. It’s wrong. And do you wear make up? Or have an amazing skin care routine?

I know I'm high porosity, and my hair dries really fast, As for my hair the strands are bumpy but that may be due to damage, As for hair type that's where I'm struggling. I used to have very very thick hair but my hairdresser texturized it to make it easier to do, That was around 2020/2021ish and now I don't know where it is. It's always been dry but not to this extent, now no matter how much Oil or product I use my scalp is always dry and flakey. My hairdresser has been strighting my hair since 2019 until recently. I've been doing my best to grow it out but it keeps getting damaged or breaking off when I wash it. I've been wanting to do more natural styles like twists etc. Any tips on how to deal with really bad cases of dry scalp? I did notice when I went overseas my scalp was less dry and itchy and the moment I got back to Canada my scalp dried up.

I love you so much You are the best RU-vidr 💗💗💗🌺😭😚

Ten months late but still thanks for this.

Hi what is product you used for your hair to be loge please tell me the procedure

U are so beautiful!!!❤😊

I need you I’m my life like right now.

I have like 1c hair but when it’s wet it’s very wavy

pov : u have curly hair and u have all the tyeps in ur hair bc it is hallf curly curly and half just curly and some wavy

I thought I had 4c hair before watching this. Now I realize I have 3c, 4a/4b.

I’m a 3a to 3c

Justice can your hair type change when you take care of it?

seems i have pretty thick 4c/b, mid porosity dense/mid hair, id said thats a dub

My hair soaks easily but takes forever to dry. What does that mean does it mean I’m a mix between the 2?

i literally have 3b hair and medium everything else wow

I my hair 4c apparently

The confusing thing is is that my hair is poofy loke 3c but looser like 3b.. which one am I?

1:14 dat part

Mostly 4 cccccccc

Can you straighten your hair?
