I thought i was 2b/m but i really dont know anymore. Ive provided length pictures and close ups to show you. If you could tell me my type and then whether you think im M C or F, that would be brilliant :)

(And yep they're all at the conditions/rules for hairtyping) (and sorry they are not very good, my hair looks different all the time)

Maybe 2b/2c? Or even 2c? The waves are starting to wurl so they are very strong.

As for fine-medium-coarse, it's extremely difficult to eyeball from photos. Your hair seems to have a bit of that silky flowy look many fine hairs have, so you are probably on the finer side of M.

I'd say 2b/2c, I think you'd be a 2c or 2c/3a if you had shorter hair or layers to really emphasize the wurls at the ends.

To be honest, though, 2b and 2c confuses me and I oftentimes end up switching my own hair type from 2b/2c to 2c and occasionally to 2c/3a just because the hairtyping photos in this area don't seem to show a very clear and distinct difference between each one.. and then my hair curls/waves differently every time I wash, so that doesn't help. :p

Just googled 2c hair and they are all so much curlier than mine, they all look about 3a!

Id call it 2b/2c too, as mine, and F, but as someone said earlier its hard to tell from pics. I think it looks similar to mine :P

Yeah.. I know what you mean, that doesn't help either! We have a visual hairtyping guide here (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showthread.php?t=116252), too. Which is also a bit confusing, haha! Like, I'd type the 3a/3b photo as 2c/3a, but whatever :shrug:

Heres a thread with pics of my hair in case youre interested. When just washed in can look that wavy even without being braided, but if I put it in a bun all day by the time I let it loose its almost straight (about 1b/1c)

I would say 2c. There's potential for curls in there.

And now I wonder whether I really am a 2c/3a, I will have to take some legit hairtyping photos sometime. :lol:

2b/2c and M is my guess, but it can be hard to gauge strand thickness by just looking at pictures. *^.^* I don't think you're a coarsie, though. :)

Welp i've changed it to 2b/c F, since i think i do have F hair, and whilst my hair is 2c after washing, after a day sleeping on it/wearing it in buns, it is always a 2b.

* F/M not F. This is confusing haha

I see a random spiraly curl in there so I would hairtype you as a 2c. You have wurly hair. :)
