Am I a 4a or 4b??

You need to post up a dry pic of your hair.

4a/4b mix because you have a combination of coils and undefined sections

 

[NicWhite]

I vote 4B.

 

[MissSenegal]

Your hair looked likes mine did at that length so I say 4 ab mix.

I'm not so great at this but I saw some pen spring coils in there and I think that means 4a. The 3rd picture in shows the most coils

OP your hair reminds me of Foxglove's 4B hair. But what do I know about typing? Hopefully @Foxglove can confirm if that's what her hair looked like when it was that length. More of Foxglove's hair.

ETA: Neith's hair is 4A and her hair looks a lot different--to me anyway.

 

[ebonyseas]

Definitely 4a

 

[Sianna]

I still say it looks like 4a OP.

I'm not all that great at hair typing, but my understanding is that 4b hair has no visible curl pattern. Plus your hair looks similar to mine, and I'm a 4a... at least that's what I've decided. My coils range in size from that of a pen spring to that of a drinking straw.

How big are your coils? That should give us a better clue. It's kinda hard to tell on pictures.

 

[BrownSkin2]

It look like 4a. You have visible coils..

 

[SuchaLady]

I have no clue but those are the cutest little curls ever.

 

[Calia001]

i thought 4b was just denser curls, not absent of curls period.
I think your hair looks lovely and I have no idea what type you are.
I know your definitely 4...sumthin lol

 

[Keen]

I would personally put you in the 3C category. But my understanding of the typing system is totally different from LHCF. Either way all that matter is that you have beautiful hair.

Doesn't every 4b's hair look like the 1st picture if you haven't detangled? Does it clump up into miniscule coils like that? That picture WAS manipulated with my fingers but I was re-defining the coils that were there already (I'm trying to make sense lol)

BlackMasterPiece I have seen your posts on silky 4a and coarse 4a, is there a silky 4b and a coarse 4b also?

lesedi Okay wow, now that I'm finally home and can see it full-screen I might have to ammend my intial conclusion. That is the first and last time I type someone through my iphone

You lean toward 4b but I think you're one of the rare inbetweenies. 4a/b is the perfect descriptor for you. We have very similar hair-types. You can take tips from 4a's and 4b's, which is what I did.

 

[curlyninjagirl]

^^I would say 4a/b mix, too. I love mixed hair!

 

[lesedi]

You need to post up a dry pic of your hair.

The last two pics are of my hair dry (the second lot of pics i posted)

 

[Ese88]

i would say 4b

 

[Katherina]

4a is pen spring sized coils. To me, you look to be either 4a or 4a-b mixed.

If in doubt, after your next wash and detangling session you could gut a pen and compare a few strands of clean, dry, shred hair to the spring. Voila!

Thanks Nonie! I didn't have the guts to bc that short so I've never seen my hair at that length
