for anyone who has type 2 hair ( a, b or c) , i highly advise you to use sea salt water spray or ocean water, if you can get it naturally. Not only will it reduce the risk of dandruff, but it also tightens your curls and enhances your waves. But if you use normal salt and water, it could be very harmful. Also, dont try to use it everyday or every time you shower. For example, you could use it once whenever you shower. try sleeping on a silk pillowcase instead of a cotton one. It would reduce the frizz and less breakage would occur. when it comes to tying your hair, use scrunchies instead of thin rubber bands. if youre drying your hair, try using a microfiber hair towel or a t-shirt, if you dont have such towel. the t shirt would prevent frizz and absorb excess water. use hair milk if you have one. it provides moisture for your hair. lastly, eat fruits and veggies more often. oranges and grapefruits are some fruits that decreases the risk of frizz, and drink water every 2 hours or so. *EDIT*: i hope you try these hacks one day and leave your opinions about it on the comments! Also, rectify me if i have made any mistake or if the suggested tips are incorrect. Have a nice day!!
My mom has 1b and my dad has 2b. I ended up with a mix of straight hair and majority 2a and 2b types of hair on my head. The front part is pretty straight, and the back is wavy. Very hard to style all my life. Was worse when I was younger when I had 3x the amount of hair that was actually 3a curly. As I got older the hair has lost most of the curl. I’m planning to grow my hair long and braid it. That weight will pull it down and keep it tame. I’ve had short and medium hair styles that were messy chic. I’m tired of the messy look.
Tori Jones by washing they means using shampoo, still use conditioner and hydrate your hair as well as use some organic oils. Just use shampoo once every two weeks.
i have 4c hair and im not going to lie. it's easy to take care of. let me explain: you can wash it once a month or once every 2 months. styling is a constant thing that save you time and time. i've learned the less manipulation the happier the hair in turn makes you a happy camper.
Anyone in the 4 group - DO NOT COMB, BRUSH OR MANIPULATE YOUR HAIR TOO MUCH. "Fragile" is why it seems hard to grow because it breaks from just air blowing it too hard 😂 Combs and brushes destroy our hair - you can hear it ripping. I stopped, just steam my hair daily via shower, throw on my fav hair butter, and seal with oil. I have a big 4B-4C fro with mid back length hair when pulled 😅 I was protective styling but could not figure out why it wasnt growing despite moisturizing. Our hair breaks so easy - our ancestors used mud for a reason - our hair is not designed to hang nor really be touched at all. It compiles onto its curly self to be in a *fixed* state to keep the sun and vermin out. We were taught to "tame" it - but it is already tamed.
I knew when I saw this channel was “teaching” hair types I knew it was going to be inaccurate which is why I clicked the video and went straight to the comments. 😆
"Type 4. .....its your turn" 😂😂 nothing says comedy like a chippery white woman talking about black women's hair"😂😂😂. She really took her life in her hands lol
3b, but I already knew that, as a stylist! I prefer it flat ironed for photos, or pulled up! It tends to look like a triangle otherwise. Some professional tips as a curly girl: Never let terrycloth touch your hair. Always use an old t-shirt or microfiber to absorb wet hair. Use a squirt bottle on days you don’t shampoo and some leave-in conditioner. These are my best hair days! I don’t let shampoo touch my hair, I use co-wash which is a cleansing conditioner. Cool/cold air is THE best on curls as it helps that cuticle stay down. Best of luck, Curly girls! ❤
@@LeahMcNabbsame. I'm not really sure why mine does that though. It's like it's curly on the outside but underneath it's wavy and almost completely straight. Like I said I don't know why, it could be genetics or it could be from me straightening it so much as a young teenager and literally burning my hair. I just do everything that she said and put gel in my hair. It usually does the trick but I'm still not getting the form that I want
@@carlamartinezmangas4112 4c hair are very tiny coils, so small you can't see the curl definition, you will have to be up close & personal to see them and they strink up a lot more.
Hardest thing about seeing these beautiful 4’s is waiting to grow out the chemical relaxer in my hair right now. The relaxed hair on top of the new growth just makes a textured mess and hits you with unnatural tangles. Going back to my roots, literally 😂
Between 2 b and 2c, i just love them because i can literally do whatever i want with it, i can take the curly hair look or just get a straight look, thats just a blessing
Ikr. I always want my hair to be long but then it always shrinks and then i have to blowdry it everytime i wash it. But then the heat damages my hair too so there goes my dreams of long hair.😥☹️😭😭
@@ruesopher5152 jealous of what exactly? There are disadvantages to type 4 hair but we own it. Same can be said for all the other types. I don't know what you're on about.
Fun fact: Type 1A is hair that has baby-fine, completely straight strands. This type is straight from root to tip. Typically, type 1A hair has little to no body and has a difficult time keeping a curl. This hair type is actually pretty rare .There are different types of naturally straight hair, from fine and thin to thick and coarse, with pros and cons for all the ways hair can be straight-and yes, we're even talking about hair that's straightened using styling tools and products
I have this hair. It's flat. No matter what I do to it, it's flat. It's also kind of brittle. You can put it in a ponytail or braid like they said, but it WILL fall out. If you have this hair, grow it long as you can and just have straight shiny flat hair with no volume at all. It's for the best trust me. Also, bangs are NOT your friend.
1a is more common in Northern Europe. Asia has billions of people with 1c hair. The hair there is so straight that short hair cuts have the hair stick straight out of the skull. And the hair is not baby fine. Each strand is thick. Northern Europeans have fine straight hair. Asians have thick straight hair. I’m Asian and my mom has 1c hair and my dad has wavy 2b hair. My brother and I have both 2a and 2b hair on our heads. My sister has 1b hair. The most obvious sign of Asian straight hair is that it never frizzes even in the most humid weather. It is stubbornly straight. If it frizzes or changes shape, it is not Asian but has the baby fine European hair characteristics.
@@christinalim2320 u never brush curly hair, ever. U can take a comb to it to detanglr when its wet but never brush ur curly hair, especially when its dry
My hair is completely different when I’m not using conditioner. I remember it being so frizzy when I was a kid. It flips in or out at the ends (not in a cute beach way). The strands are thin, but I have massive amounts of it. I’m truly considering shaving the back.
Ah, I think I must be 1C, I've had so many hairdressers over the years tell me I have "Asian" hair (my ancestors were Italian, Dutch and black Irish, which is actually Spanish). Can't hold a curl, not even when I got a perm back in the 70s! Definitely agree with the "cascade" hairstyle suggestion.
The thing about Asian straight hair (because there are rare ones with waves and curls…I am one of them with 2a and 2b) that is different is that Asian straight hair never frizzes even in humid weather. Just never changes its shape whether, dry, wet, semi-wet. Also, each strand of hair is totally straight, including the little hairs near the hairline. A lot of Caucasians I see with straight hair have wavy baby hairs or ends that curl. Also Asian straight hair is a bit thicker stranded and has a smooth shine. In the shade it is black but seen thru the sunlight it can have a red or orange tint. This is something I notice doesn’t exist in other races with naturally black hair.
They gave so much false info on type 4 hair, First regular towels when trying to dry ur hair makes it fuzzy and if your going for the CURLY look air dry it.....
For the 4th hair, the most curly and short one. I felt like the discluded it. All they said was: “greatest shrinking, very hard to comb, more to take care of ” all the other hair types got attention. Especially the straight hair :(
I’m sorry but you see a lot more style options with straight hair it’s always been that way in the western world anyway for example African women with hair such as 4C may style it there own way and it would only apply to people with that hair type not the rest of the world I’ve also spoken to many black people who would agree their hair can be very hard to style and that’s coming from myself who’s a 3C
Lilo Kivesh 4c hair is wayyyyyy thicker than what the example showed us. It’s like an Afro but very coily. Your right they have no idea about 4c hair, neither 4a or 4b. Those examples had 3b and 3c type hair .
I was trying to figure why these examples are so off. I’m 3c/4a and my hair type wasn’t even displayed. 4a in this example seemed like 4b and 3c seemed like 3b. Andre Walker didn’t even mention type 4c curls in his book
To be honest, your information for 3 and 4 hair types in totally off... you shouldn't be washing your hair too often as it is, and cool air dries out your ends. Using certain products also damages hair....
While the classification of hair types does a decent job to figure out wash, condition, and best styling products for hair, it flops the moment you own more than a single hair type or texture. More important, hair products to support a specific result on the hair type may quickly work in another fashion and or require further processing on an alternate texture....The moment you include frizz into the equation- some hair types never experience frizz- hair becomes far more complicated than it seems.
So, I figured out how a way easier and less time-consuming way to find out your hair type. Step 1: Find a mirror. Step 2: Look in the mirror. You’re done!!
I don’t feel like the type 3 (any of them really) were accurately represented in these short examples. If you’re a POC don’t take this video too seriously lol
I’d advice you to use castor oil 100% organic. it helps with frizzy hair, damaged hair, hair loss, it helps your hair grow much faster. But don’t use it too much. Use it 2-3 times a week and massage it in your hair it’s best to sleep with it or you can wash it after one hour. But use sulfate free shampoo because the ones that do contain sulfate can cause frizzy hair or hair loss
@@michellelyston8566 I thought they were implying the damaged hair was leaving. Like hold up, why was my damaged hair still with me when I did the big chop?
I’m a 2a!! Loads of people ask me why i don’t style it often but it is a NIGHTMARE!!! if I wear it down for less than an hour it clumps up and becomes a crazy knotty mess!! Very hard to look after but gorgeous if you know what your doing. Pros to my fellow 2a’s!!
4 group hair... don’t ever listen to this person and dry your hair with a towel 😒 you will dry out your ends And cause breakage... dry with a T-shirt or air dry is best... thank me later
HILARY ANN NICOLAS BRUH. We will never know that’s it’s a white person🤦🏾♀️ But definitely has no experience....or has been doing it wrong. But color doesn’t have a voice.
Type 3 now but had type 1& 2 throughout my younger years. Grew out my hair in high school and it became super curly for reason. 3c hair and the curls sometimes look like it just came off a perm press literally perfect tunnels it’s nutty.
How is a cartoon with an afro specifically white, or yes, not white, for that matter? He actually is represented pretty well to me. I'd bet it is a stock image, maybe the choices were very limited. If anything, I could agree that the lack of choices is the, uh, root, of the problem. OK, had to have some "dry" humor.
U can't get offended when it's true. Our hair takes time to detangle and a comb isn't just gonna go through it easy which is why wigs are used cause wig wearers say it's more manageable and easy to deal with
I have 1A hair and I agree 100% that it is super soft and shiny, but it has ZERO volume, gets oily very quickly and it doesn't hold a curl for anything. 😭 I wish I could style it but it just won't hold no matter what I do to it. 💔
Yup I love silicone mix but I don't dry it I put it in to 4 plaits then I wear a thing on my head it's like a shower cap but the material of a headscarf then I let air dry
sometime my hair like example 1 sometime my hair like example 2A sometime my hair like example 2B sometime my hair like example 2C sometime my hair like example 3A sometime my hair like example 3B sometime my hair like example 3C sometime my hair like example 4A sometime my hair like example 4B sometime my hair like example 4C SO I CUT MY HAIR INTO BALD ;D

@@saulsateam or 2a and 3b at the same time 🤸♂️ I have way different curls all over, and after watching the video I still don't know which tips to follow haha
2c-3a type. I was told by a stylist to wash in shampoo but not condition, then allow to air dry without combing or brushing in anyway, to find your hair type.
Why? She isn't saying straight hair is perfect, she was talking about hair that is completely straight, so perfectly straight hair means hair that is straight like a string. "Perfectly" is an adverb, not an adjective! I feel so offended by your comment honestly
Laureen Light even though I agree with you can people just not listen to a video and not get offended. Nothing about this video was offensive and nothing about her comment was offensive. Two misunderstandings. Case closed.
My hair doesn’t fit into any of the categories; I think type 5 must exist somewhere. I’m a native South African and I think the hair types classification doesn’t go as far as Afro; there’s definitely a type 5 hair. 😊😊
The easiest to take care of is obvious 1. My sister has 1a and she just gets up and go. She doesn’t even have to comb her hair. It NEVER knots. She gets a trim now and then and that’s it. She goes swimming in the pool, shampoos it, then let’s it air dry by itself. Zero maintenance. Beyond 1, it is all increasing maintenance from there unless you go for a buzz cut.
Thank you for this! I have been trying some solutions and I think I finally know my hair type. HOPEFULLy. I will try these out since this could help my hair's health.
So far from this, I think my hair is like across the 3 and 4 spectra depending on which section I grab. And my hair doesn't look awesome from just letting it go after I wash and add oil/leave-ins. Probably because it's obvious that it's like multiple different types.
This is SO inaccurate. The pictures that are shown make no sense.

3c
Alem Head Welch look for my comment, i have some tips for type 3 ;)
Ayyyyy😜
Alem Head Welch hey, I use shea miracle from the brand called African pride. The orange package. It makes the curls looks so shiny and bouncy
3c
Y’all bullshiting my 4c hair sure don’t look like that 😂
Rosemary M they dont know what they are talking about 100%
Rosemary M exactly
I haven’t seen my 4c yet👀
That was not 4c hair at all. There is definitely a curl definition first of all and secondly way more coily then what they showed
For real they just found to people with their hair shaped in a Afro but not the actual Afro texture
exactly
I have 1A..exactly because though my hair is straight, silky and shiny..it gets bit dirty within few days🙍♀️
Mine too
I wish I have straight hair
same mine gets dirty overnight :/
Mine too🤩❤
Samee and it gets so greasy!
The thing about Asian straight hair (because there are rare ones with waves and curls…I am one of them with 2a and 2b) that is different is that Asian straight hair never frizzes even in humid weather. Just never changes its shape whether, dry, wet, semi-wet. Also, each strand of hair is totally straight, including the little hairs near the hairline. A lot of Caucasians I see with straight hair have wavy baby hairs or ends that curl. Also Asian straight hair is a bit thicker stranded and has a smooth shine. In the shade it is black but seen thru the sunlight it can have a red or orange tint. This is something I notice doesn’t exist in other races with naturally black hair.
For all the people who are confused you can have more than one hair type! 😂
Yeah I have a little bit of everything 🙂 every region of my head has a different texture 💔
My hair is a mix of 2b, 4A, and 3c
Im a mix of 1c and 2a
yea my hair is a mix of wavy and straight!
At the end it said 4c but it showed Type 3💀
Facts.. I'm like my hair don't look like that lol
Yeah drying take wayyy longer than 15 minutes
Lechel Dye exactly they talking about sO yOu dOnT hAve tO wAsh eVeRy DaY....like hun we wash every week if not longer 😂
7:51 THATS NOT EVEN TYPE 3c💀💀
boss ikr 🤣
They gave so much false info on type 4 hair, First regular towels when trying to dry ur hair makes it fuzzy and if your going for the CURLY look air dry it.....
my wavy hair after taking a bath with no shampoo: ok imma straighten ur hair for 1 week
Then you have straight hair
My hair is curlier the longer I go without washing it!
For the 4th hair, the most curly and short one. I felt like the discluded it. All they said was: “greatest shrinking, very hard to comb, more to take care of ” all the other hair types got attention. Especially the straight hair :(

I’m sorry but you see a lot more style options with straight hair it’s always been that way in the western world anyway for example African women with hair such as 4C may style it there own way and it would only apply to people with that hair type not the rest of the world I’ve also spoken to many black people who would agree their hair can be very hard to style and that’s coming from myself who’s a 3C
Same i am somali and i have 3b hair or 3c and i want to know how i could grow it i need help can anyone help me?
Gosh! 4C hair people....as in real 4C hair....eyes rolling. This person has got no idea about 4C...or maybe there is more hair types....such as 5z.
Lilo Kivesh 4c hair is wayyyyyy thicker than what the example showed us. It’s like an Afro but very coily. Your right they have no idea about 4c hair, neither 4a or 4b. Those examples had 3b and 3c type hair .
I was trying to figure why these examples are so off. I’m 3c/4a and my hair type wasn’t even displayed. 4a in this example seemed like 4b and 3c seemed like 3b. Andre Walker didn’t even mention type 4c curls in his book
I'm supposed to be 4c but I'm like sorry honey that is not 4c
Yea have 4c and it's so hard to comb
lol she litterally said nothing positive about the 4’s
Michelle Lee what 😭
@Michelle Lee u mad bc u got type 1? girl bye
@Michelle Lee we do
what's positive about it?

This is the most inaccurate representation of hair types I’ve ever seen. So where is the Afro hair then? They just decided to miss it off
Imagine....
Ik let’s be honest not all curly hair bounces like that and people’s curl pattern changes so much.
Exactly
Afro hair is 4c hair lol
@@amareimani4432 the hair they showed for 4c wasn't even 4c that's what the person is trying to say lol.
To be honest, your information for 3 and 4 hair types in totally off... you shouldn't be washing your hair too often as it is, and cool air dries out your ends. Using certain products also damages hair....
Jasmine Hogan agree I switched to an all natural shampoo bar off of Etsy
Ikr!
type 3 is pretty accurate and helpful for me
Jasmine Hogan Thats true
3:56
this ain’t 4C hair...
right like its rough that looks soft
Sure. It isn't. It looks 3C or 4A.
Ikr
Kay Kay vlogs 4c hair can be soft
Not even close😂😂
While the classification of hair types does a decent job to figure out wash, condition, and best styling products for hair, it flops the moment you own more than a single hair type or texture. More important, hair products to support a specific result on the hair type may quickly work in another fashion and or require further processing on an alternate texture....The moment you include frizz into the equation- some hair types never experience frizz- hair becomes far more complicated than it seems.
So, I figured out how a way easier and less time-consuming way to find out your hair type.
Step 1: Find a mirror.
Step 2: Look in the mirror.
You’re done!!

Hey sub me thanks
Lol 😂
@@sprout5408 I don't think you get the poin

I don’t feel like the type 3 (any of them really) were accurately represented in these short examples. If you’re a POC don’t take this video too seriously lol
Ikr!
Yeah I agree.
Exactly
I agree, i have 3B and my hair gets frizzy really easily, i tought this video could help but it didn't. Any tips?
hold up, you're telling me to throw away my hair product and just worry about volume? what about damaged hair? wait where are you going? hello?
I don’t get the ending of your comment
I’d advice you to use castor oil 100% organic. it helps with frizzy hair, damaged hair, hair loss, it helps your hair grow much faster. But don’t use it too much. Use it 2-3 times a week and massage it in your hair it’s best to sleep with it or you can wash it after one hour. But use sulfate free shampoo because the ones that do contain sulfate can cause frizzy hair or hair loss
@@vintage1017 They're implying that the narrator is walking away because they're too afraid to answer the simple question.
Just use motor oil that will give you the best shine and volume 😂
@@michellelyston8566
I thought they were implying the damaged hair was leaving. Like hold up, why was my damaged hair still with me when I did the big chop?
I’m a 2a!! Loads of people ask me why i don’t style it often but it is a NIGHTMARE!!! if I wear it down for less than an hour it clumps up and becomes a crazy knotty mess!! Very hard to look after but gorgeous if you know what your doing. Pros to my fellow 2a’s!!
3:56 if this is 4c hair then I have a 6c hair...

And cause breakage... dry with a T-shirt or air dry is best... thank me later
Nana's world i knowwww and it causes frizz
@HILARY ANN NICOLAS EXACTLY!!! I'm on my sisters tablet tho
Nana's world, 😎 I always dry my hair with a towel
HILARY ANN NICOLAS
BRUH.
We will never know that’s it’s a white person🤦🏾♀️ But definitely has no experience....or has been doing it wrong.
But color doesn’t have a voice.
😂😂. Said don’t listen to this person.
Type 3 now but had type 1& 2 throughout my younger years. Grew out my hair in high school and it became super curly for reason. 3c hair and the curls sometimes look like it just came off a perm press literally perfect tunnels it’s nutty.
The minute Andrew Walker was represented with a white man I knew this was going to be pretty inaccurate, especially for type 4 hair. Next...
How is a cartoon with an afro specifically white, or yes, not white, for that matter? He actually is represented pretty well to me. I'd bet it is a stock image, maybe the choices were very limited. If anything, I could agree that the lack of choices is the, uh, root, of the problem. OK, had to have some "dry" humor.
“Extremely hard to comb” please don’t discuss 3b-4c hair ❗️👌🏽 This video was trash
You can finger detangle it...it's not fait to comb it.
Its not easy to comb though.
I have 4c hair and it's hard to comb, so speak for yourself
If you aren't using the Right products then of course it's hard to handle. Learn what products work well and it wouldn't be a problem at all
U can't get offended when it's true. Our hair takes time to detangle and a comb isn't just gonna go through it easy which is why wigs are used cause wig wearers say it's more manageable and easy to deal with
Meantime the person who was in type 4 was supposed to be in type 3 but ok
Which one

Here
2c-3a type. I was told by a stylist to wash in shampoo but not condition, then allow to air dry without combing or brushing in anyway, to find your hair type.
It's the inaccuracy for me at type 3 and 4😂😂.
Yep
How is it inaccurate?

I paused the video after she said,”Perfectly straight hair”. Peace out everyone.
Why? She isn't saying straight hair is perfect, she was talking about hair that is completely straight, so perfectly straight hair means hair that is straight like a string. "Perfectly" is an adverb, not an adjective! I feel so offended by your comment honestly
Laureen Light even though I agree with you can people just not listen to a video and not get offended. Nothing about this video was offensive and nothing about her comment was offensive. Two misunderstandings. Case closed.

Arianna Williams exactly 😂😂😂. My hair takes forever to dry and I don’t use heat.
😂I watched this video for entertainment purposes only.
My hair doesn’t fit into any of the categories; I think type 5 must exist somewhere. I’m a native South African and I think the hair types classification doesn’t go as far as Afro; there’s definitely a type 5 hair. 😊😊
You're 4C they just didn't put anybody on the video with actually 4C hair..
Whoa Luva right??? All the type “4s” were type 3s
Ur 4c
@@Hannahvpr agreed
Type 5 doesn’t exist
The easiest to take care of is obvious 1. My sister has 1a and she just gets up and go. She doesn’t even have to comb her hair. It NEVER knots. She gets a trim now and then and that’s it. She goes swimming in the pool, shampoos it, then let’s it air dry by itself. Zero maintenance. Beyond 1, it is all increasing maintenance from there unless you go for a buzz cut.
Once I heard "your hair isn't wavy it's just damaged" that motivated me and my now 3b hair
Yeah...im 1A hair UGH EHY DOES MY HAIR HAVE TO GET OILY VERY FAST
Omg ikr

Because it's not thick so your natural oils easily cover her hair.

2c prefer straight because it's a way better looking for me but sometimes I like it naturally but there's always lumps at the top 😭

Thank you for this! I have been trying some solutions and I think I finally know my hair type. HOPEFULLy. I will try these out since this could help my hair's health.
So far from this, I think my hair is like across the 3 and 4 spectra depending on which section I grab. And my hair doesn't look awesome from just letting it go after I wash and add oil/leave-ins. Probably because it's obvious that it's like multiple different types.
i have that except it is wavy and curly
