Over the past few months several readers have asked us to break down hair typing. Whether or not you feel that hair typing is important, the fact remains that it can be difficult to follow along with online discussions without knowing the various texture references. After some searching we found NaturallyCurly.com’s hair typing guide to be the most comprehensive — although it does not include a type 4c category — so we’ve included excerpts here.
Type 4 — Kinky Hair
• Type 4 is kinky, or very tightly curled, with a clearly visible curl pattern
• Circumference: Crochet needle or even smaller
• The hair is very wiry, very tightly coiled and very, very fragile
• Type 4 hair can range from fine/thin to wiry/coarse with lots and lots of strands densely packed together
• Type 4 hair has fewer cuticle layers than any other hair type, which means that it has less natural protection from the damage you inflict by combing, brushing, curling, blow-drying and straightening it
• Type 4 hair is known to shrink up to 75% of the actual hair length
There are two Type 4 subtypes:
•4b: Has a “Z” pattern, less of a defined curl pattern. Instead of curling or coiling, the hair bends in sharp angles like the letter “Z”; has a cotton-like feel
•4b celebrities: Shingai Shoniwa
Shingai Shoniwa, 4b hair
•4a: Tightly coiled hair that, when stretched, has an “S” pattern, much like curly hair. It tends to have more moisture than 4b; has a definite curl pattern
•4a celebrities: Esperanza Spalding
Esperanza Spalding, 4a hair
Tips
• Use styling creams, butters and oils for type 4 hair
• This hair type needs extra moisture and tender-loving care because it can be fragile
• Detangle hair with a lot of conditioner in your hair and use a comb or detangling brush
• Let hair air dry or use a hood dryer
• Do not use a brush or comb on your dry curls
• Reduce tangles by sleeping on a satin pillowcase or wrap hair in a satin cap
Type 3c — Curly Kinky Hair
Subtype 3c is really more than a subtype. It’s a type NaturallyCurly members developed because the original system left out this hair type, which falls between 3b and 4a, having its own special characteristics.
• Type 3c hair has tight curls in corkscrews
• Circumference: Pencil or straw
• The curls can be either kinky, or very tightly curled, with lots and lots of strands densely packed together
• Getting this type of hair to blow dry straight is more challenging than for 3a or 3b, but it usually can be done
• The very tight curls are usually fine in texture
• 3c celebrities: Alicia Keyes, Jada Pinkett-Smith, Tracee Ellis Ross
Tracee Ellis Ross, 3c hair
Tips
• Use styling creams, butters and oils for type 3c hair
• This hair type needs extra moisture and tender-loving care because it can be fragile
• Detangle hair with a lot of conditioner in your hair and use a comb or detangling brush
• Do not use a brush or comb on your dry curls
• Reduce tangles by sleeping on a satin pillowcase or wrap hair in a satin cap
Type 3 — Curly Hair
• There is a definite loopy “S” pattern
• Curls are well-defined and springy
• Type 3 hair has a lot of body; it is easily styled in its natural state or straightened with a blow-dryer
• It isn’t coarse, like many believe, but soft and very fine—there’s just a lot of it
• Combinations of Type 3a and 3b curls are common
There are two Type 3 subtypes:
•3b: Medium amount of curl, from bouncy ringlets to tight corkscrews.
Circumference: Sharpie size
•3b celebrities: Keri Russell, Bernadette Peters, Melina Kankaredes
Keri Russel, 3b hair
•3a: Curls are naturally big, loose and usually very shiny.
Circumference: sidewalk-chalk size
•3a celebrities: AnnaLynne McCord, Debra Messing
Debra Messing, 3a hair
Tips
• 3a’s: Use gels and creams that offer light moisture and curl definition
• 3b’s: Use gels and styling creams with extra moisture and serious frizz control
• Use duckbill clips on the crown of your head to lift top curls
• Let hair air dry or use a diffuser
• Once your curls are dry, rub a little pomade into the palm of your hands and smooth over your hair gently
• Do not use a brush or comb on your dry curls
• Reduce tangles by sleeping on a satin pillowcase
Type 2 — Wavy Hair
• The wave or curl forms throughout the hair in the shape of the letter “S”
• Type 2 hair sticks close to the head; it won’t bounce up, even when layered
There are three Type 2 subtypes:
•2c: Thick and coarse and more resistant to styling and will frizz easily
•2c celebrities: Jennifer Nettles, Daisy Fuentes, Brittany Snow
•2b: Medium-textured and a little resistant to styling; has a tendency to frizz
•2b celebrities: Joss Stone, Nelly Furtado, Carrie Underwood
•2a: Fine, thin and very easy to handle; easily straightened or curled
•2a celebrities: Scarlett Johansson, Naomi Watts, Cate Blanchett
Tips
• Use lighter products such as mousses or gels that enhance curls, but don’t weigh them down
• Use duckbill clips on the crown of your head to lift top curls
• Let hair air dry or use a diffuser
• Once your curls are dry, rub a little pomade into the palm of your hands and smooth over your hair gently
• Do not use a brush or comb on your dry curls
• Reduce tangles by sleeping on a satin pillowcase
Ladies, which hair type are you?

Have you ever seen Jada Pinketts natural hair. It is 3C. What is everyone talking about not by a long shot?

Um…what about the 4c chicas??…typical

Hey I have4b type hair but its very frustrating , my sister has type 3c … Is there any way I can chage my hair texture ? Or maybe stretch my curls ? My hair also has a very fast growth rate .… But it gets tangled and knots and cuts how can I prevent this ? Thanks
What about 4C Hair?? ‑_-
I cant decide if im 4a or 3c. I have a lot of hair. When freshly washed, not combed or anything it looks like 4a. But when combed conditioned and rinsed it looks like 3c so need help finding what i have!!!!
If 4b is the most wiry and tangle‑y, definitely that one.
My curls shrink into themselves and its so difficult to keep it moisturized.
[img]https://bglh-marketplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/20131003_181655.jpg[/img]
See included photo. I think my hair is 4a. Freshly washed with a leave in an grease I can scrunch it curly as long as I don’t touch it again later. It also straightens the same with water hair oil and a brush. I currently have a relaxer but if I brush my hair wet the edges wave abd shine. It’s only been like this a few years. It used to definitely be 4b all the way any tips to keeping the curl?
The curl is gone, your hair is relaxed. The chemical has ruined the proteins of your hair, so it will not curl. Also, with your hair straightened, I cannot tell you what type of hair you have. The only way to tell is by seeing your natural texture; no, not your roots. After growing out a relaxer, you will have scab hair while it tries to become used to not being relaxed. It’s damaged hair, and will not act the same as your healthy hair until it’s strong again. Chemicals, rough treatment (brushing, dry detangling, etc.) and heat will keep… Read more »
Don’t relax your hair if you want curls.
[img]https://bglh-marketplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/20130731_214433.jpg[/img]
Posted earlier. Blow dries don’t work for me cuz I sweat a lot in my hair so it’s either up or scrunch curled. With or without relaxer. I did a big chop 2 years ago and the top was very curly wash and wear with a little gel. So I think it’s between 4a and 3c.
So you can talk about the addition of 3c hair but completely ignore 4c hair?
I think I have 4a hair for the most part and another texture because, some sections of my hair are more wavy compared to the rest that curls up instantly.
Hey guys!!! watch my new look in long hair!

I have been transitioning for over 5‑months, my nature hair has the S like pattern too, can someone please explain to me, do I have weavy hair because of the S‑pattern or do I have to wait until all my hair transition to all nature?
Thank you,
Rosa
Hi Rosa,
Your real curl pattern will show itself, as soon as you’re done with the transition. Your relaxed hair is weighting down your hair or you can say stretching the hair. I remember that clearly back when I was transitioning. I am very surprised to see, that my real hairtype is a mix of 3b og 3c and not pure 3a, as i thought doing my transition.
Hope you could use it.
Best regards from Denmark
Nina
Hi, my name is kadeidra strickland and i’m really thinking about going natural, however i still have permed ends but i also had my ends trimmed a month ago, i also need help with knowing my hair type i just finished shampooing and conditioning my hair and i kind of a have an s pattern going on.
I think it would be best to wait until you have cut all the chemicals out your hair to really see what it can do. That’s what it took to for me to find out I am type 4a hair.. Good luck on your natural hair journey!

Now is only I could find my hair type! I think I’m somewhere between 3b and 3c. I don’t quite have the definition of 3c. I’d say the curl shape tends more to 3b but the texture looks closer to 3c, and when it comes to density…well let’s just not go there — VERY.
I love reading through an article that can make people think.
Also, many thanks for allowing for me to comment!
I don’t understand why a lot of women claim to go “natural” but then resort to straightening their hair on a regular basis. You are still causing damage to your hair regardless if you’re using a flat iron, blow dryer, or any other source of heat to straighten your hair. It’s starting to get annoying when I hear women say something like “oh it’s been [insert number] of months since I’ve had a relaxer” as they flip their hair. That’s nice ladies, but you’re defeating the purpose of going natural if all you’re gonna do is go back and straighten… Read more »
If you are using heat protectants, u out will do fine. I’m going Natural because the chemicals are throwing my hormones off and I’m trying to have a baby. I get my hair straighten twice a month and it’s chemical free. My hair is transitioning well and my hair is healthy. I had a perm since June of last year.

Haven’t had a perm since June of last year.
Great info! However why do most people think that people with 3 type hair have fine hair? My hair is THICK and big and bouncy, really thick hair.
Thanks once again girl!

ISSUE #1: 4c hair type was not mentioned at all
ISSUE #2: using pics of white celebrities to compare to various natural hair types.
@tha_niks, I 100% agree with you. I really have issues with 4c not being mentioned and what sense does it make to use pics of white women for a black hair forum. As someone who has just begun the natural hair journey, I want accurate and helpful information. Further more, I’m pretty sure Debra Messing probably had her hair curled (not that it matters because again it’s supposed to be about black hair). I also believe that Alicia Keys and Tracee Ellis Ross’s hair types where incorrectly classified but whatever. Again, there are a few issues here.
Agreed! T. E. Ross has 3b hair. And I was wondering what happened to 4c.

Hi,
I have 4b/c hair in Sista Locs which I totally adore. My problem is that it is beginning to go thin on the top, making the locs there look all straggly. Can someone please advise what I can do with this condition.
Thank you

Emu oil and castor oil with some coconut oil because the scalp absorbs that oil well
Hi BGLH,
Could you update that article please and add 4C hair : tips, celebrities and description ?

Why you have to curse at her? There’s tons of other websites that van give you information on 4c hair. Wow! I’m sure she isn’t racist. Other sites give white ladies too as examples.
Thats not the point goodbye !
There’s not point in the language. It’s shows ignorance on your part. Goodbye!

[…] So it’s because of this multiple texture scenario that I don’t place too much stock in this kind of hair typing, but I suppose it’s good to be armed with all the knowledge out there. There are numerous other ways to figure out your hair besides just looking at a curl pattern. These things include whether your individual hair strands are thick or thin, and how porous your hair is. These factors all play a part in how you care for your hair and I’ll touch on them in future posts. In the meantime though, you can read up… Read more »

Interesting 4c appears to be the hair type most sisters have and it’s the only one missing, now that’s messed up.
I’m a 4a with a little 3c and I’m a sista .
‘most’
By looking at this site, I realize that I am a 4b hair type. Thanks for the tip
They probably didn’t include 4c because often times, 4b and 4c are grouped together. 4c is often seen as a more “challenging” version of 4b hair (according to Naturallycurly.com). They both have a Z pattern and little curl definition, so often 4c is grouped into 4b hair.
actually only 4b has a Z pattern,4c has an s pattern when u do a style with it though.
Type 4b is different than 4c hair. They shouldn’t be grouped together.
Exactly, 4b and 4c are two different textures.
My hair type is so confusing… My hair is just wavy but it is not thin in any way possible it can go into an Afro and it is slightly below shoulder length when straightened and people always say I have a lot of hair so I guess it has a lot of volume and it’s very thick but I have thin strands but it’s just wavy never curly or ziggy. Sorry for my rant I just tried to describe it the bet I can because I can’t figure it out

Interesting! Thanks for the tips. Have a great day!
THey showcased hair that’s close enough to 4c hair. There is no significant difference between 4b and 4c hair. No one else sees the difference only black people.SO silly! Nappy is nappy!!
I have both 4c and 4b and I can tell you there is a difference,4b is definitely softer and it has patterns that 4c does not have,with 4b you can easily do a wash and go with a 4c it would be hard,both are freaking beautiful.
Can you explain what you mean by “nappy”? I am trying not to loose my cool at the use of such a word.
They see the difference because they actually deal with it. saying nappy in nappy is ´SO silly´because certain products don´t work well for certain hair types and the ´small´ difference is actually big when it comes to combing, flat ironing basically just managing it styling in general.
So i found out i have 4a hair thanks for the info. Now all the fuss about 4c not being mentioned is silly, from what i see the 1st young lady’s hair is a 4c/4b they group those two together . It’s not like they started at 3a. Live long and be nappy

I just found out that my hair type is 4c and it need more treatment than usual and my scalp is so sensitive ?
Mine is type 4, the best thing about my hair is that its very thick and has lots of volume 🙂
Well, I’ve got 3c and didn’t know until now. My normal routine is wet-setting my hair in two braids overnight, then taking the braids out in the morning, separating the braid curls a bit, and then putting it in a half-up style.
Otherwise, I alternate between flat ironing and relaxing for a more polished look, but then the hair needs to constantly be moisturized… yes, my hair is a huge pain in the butt. 😛 Add seborrheic dermatitis to that equation and you’ve got a nightmare.
I’m 3c and 4a a mix multi textures
1a
What if your hair is completely straight with no wave at all?
4c wasn’t included because it isnt on the original hair typing guide made by andre walker…if im not mistaken…3c wasn’t on the original guide either. cool your jets people.. BGLH isn’t excluding anyone…they’re putting up the original guide
there isn’t anything for those with thick coarse curly hair as latinas/arab/ asian women have?
Why would a site call BLACK girl long hair worry about arab or asians? latinas who of African descent would be included of course. Black women do not have to include all woc in everything we do, because they sure arent trying to include us!
ignore previous — just seen 2c hiding away =]
I still have no idea what type of hair I have… it’s vaguely difficult to work with, that’s all I know
Let me say, that I too, am still lost. March 11th, was my 1st year. So..I am thinking maybe somewhere between 3c and the 4a?! My hair is very soft, and has big s shaped curls in the back and not much going on in the front of my hair. If my hair is wet, I can coil it with my figures and make curls…Oh, I don’t know. lol
The purpose of visiting the site was to get knowledge and awareness that how many kinds of hair are there in the world but there is some of them are mentioned. I need more knowledge!
Meh. Totally lost as to what hair type I have. It doesn’t feel like cotton. In fact some days plaiting it feels like I’m cutting off my fingers with wire. On others? Soft as a baby’s bottom. Definitely has neither ringlets nor sharp zigzags and is temperamental about the moisture. Most hairs can be totally straight at top, middle or end with either a few fine, totally random ringlets, S shaped curls or Z shaped curls in between.
