Trying to type my hair

[Mimha]

Hello everyone.

I am new on the forum and I try to type my hair as precisely as possible. Here is a picture of it right after a washing with green clay and dried at natural air after one detangling when still wet. It's quite wavy and making funny spirals at the end. It is not really curled though... How would you qualify it ?? I hesitate between 2b, 2c and 3a :confused: ... (It is absolutely virgin hair untrimmed since about 2 years).

Concerning the quality, it is definitely M, and volume goes from 8+ cm if tightly attached on the nape, to 9.5 cm if measured on the top of the head, which puts me in the ii lot.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Oups, I hope the picture is not too small :oops: I dont know why it came so small !!

I can't click on your picture to enlarge it, so it's kinda difficult to see, but I'd say around 2a/b.

The picture is quite small, but I would say you're a 2b, since I consider myself 2a/2b, and you're way wavier then me. Your hair might get wavier once it gets longer, but I'd definitely say you're a 2b :)

Thank you ladies ! :)
I try to put another picture, but for some reason Imageshack only allows to download small size pictures... unless you pay for it ! I have to find another way to post pictures.

My natural wave, once combed (not due to braiding)

Hummm... now, you seem to be wavier than I thought :hmm:
2b/2c, seems to me.

To upload pictures, you might like photobucket, it's a free site, and you can upload much bigger pictures there :wink:

After the second picture, I would venture to say she might be a curly. I mean those waves start tight pretty up high on the head and she wrote it was after combing so I am guessing it's wavier/curlier if left undisturbed entirely.

[lapushka]

Yes, based on the second pictures, I'm changing to 2b/c.

Thanks fithrildi.

Following your advice, I will update my data from 2b to 2b/c. (I will not go to 3 as it is not really curly, except the very end). When it grows, it tends to be a little less wavy, due to the weight of hair and length. But surprisingly, my hair is getting more and more wavy with age^^.

Yep 2b/2c, that's what I am and mine looks similar, see my sig picture.
