I'm currently confused about my hair type ! :hmm:

They looked really straight when I was young, and now it seems that they're becoming truly "wavy" !

So : I washed my hair and don't used conditioner. Then I air-dried them without combing them...

And here is the result :

Is it what we call 1c hair type? I really don't know...

Would you mind helping me with hair typing my hair ? :)
Thank you! :flower:

2a, I would say. I bet you get more waves if you CO...

My hair was straight when I was a kid, too. It got wavier in puberty, and is wavier still since I had a child. Hormones do affect hair type.

I think it's 2a. The waves are just really shallow at this point. More moisture might change that.

I'd go 2a, too; 1c/2a at the very least. :)

Another vote for 2a. Maybe even 2b, because the waves look kind of short and there are a lot of them. But keep in mind that I have never really been sure of my hairtype, so my advice may not be the best quality.

Looks like a 1c/2a or a 2a to me. Might even wave up more with moisture and such. :)

2a. It's straighter than mine, but not dramatically so.

I'd tend to go with 2a also. 7 or 8 wavelengths at BSL is not small, even tho it looks like they're fairly shallow waves.

Possibly 1c/2a but I think you're more of a solid 2a. So, 2a. :)

Thank you very much for your help everybody! :)
I wasn't sure at all about how to type my hair.

I'm surprised to find out that I'm a wavy haired girl! But it's a good thing 'cause I like wavy hair! :)

I have hormonal problems so it may affect my hair type...
Do you really think that I'd get more wave if I CO ?? I'd love it..!

I thought 1c/2a at first, but I'm gonna go with 2a.
