What is my Hair texture: Curl Pattern?

by Marissa Young

Breaking it down:

  • Type 1: Naturally straight hair.
  • Type 2: Wavy Curly: Big, looser curls with the same ‘S’ shape but larger. 
  • Type 3: Curly Kinky: Well defined, springy curls often with a ‘S’ shape. This is the most common type.
  • Type 4: Kinky Coily: Tightly curled coils with a distinct curl pattern and high shrinkage.
