I'm new and I'm not really sure where I should post this so I posted it here and in the mane forum.

So I was convinced for the longest time that my hair was a type 2a. But now that I am really looking at my hair, it doesn't seem as wavy as a 2a and I am feeling it is more like a 1c or even a 1b. I honestly can't tell.
As for the other two parts of the typing, I gave my best estimate based on the system I found in this forum, but I'm not at all sure if I'm right.
Could any of you guys help me out.

Here are two picture.

My hair is kind of straight at the top and gets slightly wavy, but not a lot. I also have a lot of problems creating volume at the top of my head, and I assume it is because my hair is "thin". When I blow dry my hair it becomes straight, but when I leave it to air dry, it gets wavy. It also gets a little frizzy in humidity.

Hello, welcome! I think you posted in the main forum and most of the gals gave you a 1c. :)
