Hey guys! I am sure you must get sick of this, but I am going crazy trying to figure out my hair type. When I was using SLS and 'cones my hair was a 1A. No sign of a wave anywhere. But now that I am doing better, much nicer things to my hair, it is somewhat wavy.

So, please help me!! The first picture is when I thought it was dry enough to "count" (so it is still a bit moist), and the second is totally dry. Sorry about the bump in the dry one. I was lying on my bed with my head on a pillow and my hair fanned out behind me while it was drying... thus creating that bump :). This is fresh, virgin hair after a CO wash with an ACV rinse.

Thanks all!! I love this place :cheese:

Thank you! I was wondering if I might fall into the 2 category, but I wasn't sure..

I can't see the photos. :(

ETA: Ok I see them now. I'd say you're 2a. :D

I think it's 2a and it's also very pretty. :)

And I actually like these hair typing threads. I think they are fun. :)

I'm thinking maybe 1c/2a. The wavelength is a bit long for 2a, if that makes any sense.

I'm going with 2a, also. :)

Going by the first photo I'd say 2a, but the other one throws me off a bit. Is the other after brushing or being braided/up at all?

The bump confuses me, but if I cover it with my finger, I'd say 1c. I guess it could be 2a, but it looks like you have more of 1c hair quantitywise, so maybe a compromise (1c/2a) is correct?

The second one was after lying (on my back... my pillow is super fluffy... thus the bump) and letting it finish air drying. No brushing or finger combing or anything.

It looks similar to mine, slightly wavier. I'm gonna go with 1c/2a, but closer to 2a than 1c :p

I think it's closest to 1c. (closer to 1c than to 2a)

It looks wavier slightly damp. You have a great shine, too! :flower:

I'd say 2a, but it would be interesting to see without the bump.

Agreeing with this. ^^
