Priority: maximum hydration (cream and butter) 3B is like sidewalk chalk or salt shaker circumference, and 4a is like coffee stirrer circumference. 3c has really really tight curls, like pencil or straw circumference. This includes those with very tight curls but finer hair, as well as coarser hair. Some people refer to this as “big hair.” Getting this type of hair to blow dry straight is more challenging than for 3a or 3b, but it usually can be done. The curls can be either kinky, or very tightly curled, with lots and lots of strands densely packed together. Type 3b, on the other hand, is hair with a medium amount of curl in bouncy ringlets – think of Shirley Temple Type 3c, is hair with tight curls in corkscrews. The longer the hair the more defined the curl. The shorter the hair, the straighter it gets. Type 3a, hair that is very loosely curled like Julia Robert’s or Susan Sarandon’s is usually very shiny with big curls. Damaged Type 3 hair is usually frizzy, dull, hard and dry to the touch, with fuzzy, ill-defined curls. The curls are well-defined and springy: pull out a strand of hair and stretch it it won’t snap in two. Healthy Type 3 hair is shiny, with soft, smooth curls and strong elasticity. Type 3, your hair has a lot of body and is easily styled in its natural state, or it can be easily straightened with a blow-dryer into a smoother style. Those of you with Type 3 hair know all too well that humidity makes curly hair even curlier, or even frizzier. As it dries, it absorbs the water and contracts to its curliest state.
When curly hair is wet, is usually straightens out. The hair doesn’t have a very smooth surface, so light doesn’t reflect off of it as much. Because the cuticle layers don’t like as flat, curly hair isn’t as shiny as straight or wavy hair. Looks like s stretched-out Slinky, doesn’t it? Most people think curly hair is coarse, but actually it is usually baby soft and very fine in texture – there’s just a lot of it. With curly hair, there is a definite loopy “S” pattern.

Tips: This hair type needs lighter products that enhance curls. Types 2b and 2c are a little more resistant to styling and have a tendency to frizz. Type 2a is very easy to handle, pliantly blowing out into a straighter style or taking on curlier looks with relative ease. Why? The hallmark of wavy hair is that it sticks close to the head: even if you cut it in layers, it won’t bounce up. But don’t be fooled: you can’t get Type 2 hair to look like Type 3 without a lot of work. Type 2 are often confused with Type 3 because it is easy to get curly hair to lay flat and look wavy. The wave forms throughout the hair in the shape of the letter “S.” Your hair is wavy, or Type 2, if it curves in the “S” shape while laying flat against the scalp, instead of standing away from the head the way true curly hair does.
Wavy hair tends to have a definite “S” pattern to it. Type 2 hair falls into the great divide between Type 1 (straight hair) and Type 3 (curly hair).
