Help with hair typing?

[Misschilly]

Hi girls,

Today I've CO and then air dried my hair without touching, here's the result!

Would you mind help with my hair typing?

Thank you so much!

2a? Going by the photos here (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showthread.php?t=116252).

I'd say a 1c/2a. Your hair looks a lot like mine.

I'd call it 2a. Looks nice!

Thank you girls! I walk around here thinking my hair is straight..it seems so after I've detangled my air dried hair..but something seems to be hiding in there..;)

I think I'm f-m/ii in the other classifications, can that be right?=)

Your hair looks like it might be fine, and possibly a ii thickness, though thickness is harder to tell from pictures sometimes. Have you done the ponytail circumference measurement? That's pretty much the way to go with that.

Yeah I guess I was a bit optimistic with the M part..:P I'm from scandinavia after all;) But I don't think my hair is really really fine, it has two structures I think=) Yeah my ponytail (withut bangs) is 8 cm so ii should be right!

(totally had to use my phone to get a metric conversion, hahaha)
So ii is about right, then. I'd say it's safe to go for a F/M, maybe? The finer side of an M.
Also, if everyone else is saying you're a 2a, I might be one too! Haha. We have the exact same hair, except mine is without a doubt a iii thickness.

You already have plenty of answers but FWIW, I second (third/fourth/fifth) the 2a suggestion :) Lovely waves!

I actually think this is 1c... ;)

on 2nd thought - I had a closer look at your ends and I change my mind; 20-ing the 2a

I'm trying to learn to think in inches! =) If we have the same hair..what's your best routine? Is there any thread for us?=)

You're lucky, your hair really is lovely :) I'm always a little jealous of the wavies/wurlies/curlies on LHC :p

I'd say 1c/2a.

[Firefox7275]

I'd say 1c, everyone with 2a hair that I know from wavy or curly hair communities has more pouf/ fluff in their hair as does the visual typing on Naturallycurly.

I said 1c/2a, but I'm leaning towards the 1c more. Forgot to mention that. I'm a 2a and have a little more body and wave in my hair.

[biogirl87]

Misschilly, I think you are a 1c, maybe a 2a.

[Misschilly]

Thanks girls, I'm starting to get an idea where I belong..Do you think it matters that I CO and didn't poo?

I used to do CO but it was too heavy/moisturizing for my fine hair. I'm back to shampoo/conditioner once a week and that honestly works best for me. I like my waves so I don't really comb my hair for a couple days (I do fingercomb, though) as I just wear it down. Later in the week I start putting it up so I use a brush (combs are bit rough for me, just a personal preference). Everyone's hair reacts differently to things, so just play around until you find something that works. It looks like CO works for you!
