Joy Before Her Hey I am a new subscriber ☺️ I have the same type of hair as you but I get a lot of frizz in the back of my head like the noticeable parts what can I do to get them more defined and less frizzy?

[@JoyBeforeHer]

Yanitza Ayala I get the same thing. You just have to apply a little more product to the back and apply it in sections so the whole part is saturated

[@anhelgu]

My hair is also a 3A curl and I thought that I was the only one that with wet hair my hair is straight thanks for saying it

[@tnnunntn]

I have from what your telling me a mix between 3a and 3b what's the best products for this?

[@shortyelsy15]

Hey thanks for this video I understand now. My hair is all over the place the top of my hair since it’s more natural it’s like a 3 but it gets really dry and frizzy middle of my hair is a 2b/c dry and frizzy and the bottom is like 1/2a because I bleached it many times. I wish my hair was more curly and not be all over the place lol.

Does anybody else have a curl type that changes according to the length of their hair?

[@kermiekermie333]

Yepp. When my hair is short my hair gets to almost a 3b and when its longer its more of a 2c

[@user-xm2nb7qj1t]

That's how everybody's hair is unless it's straight. Curls get weighed down when your hair is longer, thicker, has a lot of product in it, etc. So you might have 3a textured hair when it's very short, but then it becomes 2b when your hair is really long. Since your ends aren't weighed down nearly as much as the rest of your hair, you will likely have more texture on the bottom than on the top. There are ways to sort of fix this, but the looser the texture the harder it is to avoid. It can look nice though, so you may not even want to change it if in you think it is. You can make your hair's texture fully come out by getting specific haircuts. You could even get a haircut made specifically for your hair type, but only if you wear it natural all the time, because it won't look good with straightened hair. Sorry for the long comment!

As a guy with 3A curls, its so hard explaining to people, it's my actual hair, and not something i've had made. I also found it really hard to find out which curly type i had, since many people kept saying different stuff. Im happy i found this video, to really help me, and understand my hair better.

[@elanor8909]

i remember i was in my business class and the girl i sat next to was like “elanorrr, your hair is curly, who curled it for you?” i explained to her that my hair is naturally curly and if i were to curl it, it would look a lot nicer than this, she then replied “ohhh, i don’t believe you, but it still looks nice :)”

[@slightlyrancidcheese]

OMG! I have the same experience all the time. There is this one girl who has dead straight hair and hates me because she thinks I'm trying to hide the hair curling secrets. I find it's more common if you have 3a-b hair curls or curls around that, my friends with tighter curls don't have the same thing happen and find my struggles hilarious.

I really liked that she included photos for all curl types. Most people just show the squiggly line diagrams, which don't really show much of anything. Seeing photo examples of each type was extremely helpful. I knew that my hair was *somewhere* between 2b and 3b. Now I know that it is 2c at the top and 3a at the bottom. I was only able to narrow it down after seeing the explicit examples in this video!

[@avianace6201]

보석Nat This is the most relatable comment ever lol. To help you figure out your curl type, you can see how much it shrinks from when you pull on the curl, to when it’s in a normal resting state. I have type 3c hair. When it’s wet, it’s obviously weighed down, so it looks like type 2 hair, but you can still tell that I have curls. If it were to look straight while wet, then it would probably be more like type 2 - 3a hair. I hope this helped and also, best of luck with figuring out your sexuality. I have the same struggle all of the time.

[@exhortationsofanartist8118]

@@meilani3164 If your hair feels dead you may have to cut it a few times and baby your scalp with some special products. There was something in the water where I used to live that was killing my hair. Losing large clumps in the shower and it wasn't really growing either. For a few years I cut my hair really short ( almost shaved) and concentrated on restoring the roots. My sister found a cleansing conditioner by Ren Pure Solutions that I use 6 days a week on my hair and once a week I use a shampoo called Generic Tea Tree oil shampoo. It's made for getting impurities out of the scalp. Once I towel dry my hair, I use a few drops of OGX coconut miracle oil and work it through my hair. It's taken a few years, but my hair is almost completely restored to what it should be.Btw my hair is 2c/3a. I hope this will help. 🤗

I had ringlets as a child, like Shirley temple all over, and then my hair grew and the weight pulled the curls out to waves. I have really thick hair, 3.5 inches in diameter thick when in a ponytail, and it would tangle easily, so my mother and grandmothers solution , neither of them having my hair type, would be to rip through my hair to get all the knots out. My hair went frizzy and pouffy after that, and stayed that way until I was 17, when I cut my hair to a pixie, and then it grew back wavy, 2b, and I learned about curly and wavy hair styling and it got curlier and curlier until now, 2b-3a hair, it’s still changing and adapting so who knows, I may get back to that Shirley temple ringlet

I started heat straightening it to stop people from basically accusing me of leaving it un-brushed for a month. It was self-defense and then as an adult, survival because of workplace attitudes.

I was only able to narrow it down after seeing the explicit examples in this video! Thank you! And yes, a video on porosity would be awesome!

Princess Pea Yay!! So glad 🙌🏼💖

i relate to every 3A scenario you had me DYING 💀💀💀 they don’t UNDERSTAND my hair type

[@zoeroberts2308]

so true! im always like yeah its natural... they are like NOOO YOU definitely CURL IT HOW COME ITS STRAIGHT IN THE SHOWER?

[@Nessainthebuilding]

What's annoying is when having 3A I get 2C and sometimes 3B going on at the same time. My hair has NO idea what it wants to be.

Me: *decides to just pull my hair back like always* Anyone else relate to this? No? Just me? Ok.

BIRIOS Is your mom's hair straight?

[@katiee4219]

O. M. G. This is actually me soooo true!!!!,

[@kassie2106]

sis tell your mom no

[@midnightrally357]

Set a boundary with your mom about not brushing your hair. If she doesn't respect it that's a problem.

[@quotethyravynnevermore1456]

Woah, my mom doesnt do that but she does want me to brush my hair. So we have compromised, after taking a shower at night I brush my hair and put product in it which means in the morning I dont have to brush it I just need to put product in it

[@SomarJonathan]

Curly guy here! Thank you for this video, I’m a 2C-3A for sure! And you layed out the types so easily

[@Ava-wx8cl]

I have a mixture of 2b, 2c, and 3a curls so love that for me !!! 😍 - 4:43 - 4:48 -5:36

[@danaalmalik2871]

OMG I’m exactly the same as you!! What products do you use?i need help plz

[@Ava-wx8cl]

@@danaalmalik2871 I condition my hair every night with aussie or suave, but i usually let my curls hang loose everyday, I brush the frizzyness with a toothbrush I sprayed with hairspray. Sounds dumb but it pushes the friz down but it doesnt make my hair crunchy or wet looking on top. I also use mousses and scrunch my hair, plus texture creams make the friz go down too and make the curls more defined. Hope this helped, I'm 13 this is the best I have lmao :)

[@danaalmalik2871]

Ava Bean thank you so much

[@urealftp9123]

Ava Bean EVERY NIGHT?

[@urealftp9123]

Ava Bean oh no baby, suave have sulfate in it, if you keep conditioning every night your hair will have no natural oils to to

[@HH-kr8rf]

Omg! Finally know my type. Its 3A :) I too have straight hair when wet and curly when dry. It used to absolutely perplex my hairdressers and I had a lot of wacky cuts before I found a curly guy who does dry cuts and he still gets a little wowed at how much my hair springs up with every inch taken off. Thank you for solving the mystery!

4a I just started my natural hair journey and I love how curly my curls are☺️

[@jamiegatson3378]

How do u get your hair so curly. I have 4b

[@victoriam.9900]

It's still early in my curly hair journey, (I've also got a mixture of 2C-3A waves/curls). But after painting my hair so much, I've decided to start all over. I recently got my first diffuser and I can't wait to see where I go from here! ☺
