i agree with this but i also agree with wet texture typing too - well actually i abhor
all texture/typing systems but that's another topic for another day.
for example, folks will look at my hair and think one thing or another but it's really neither, it's hybridized just like my ancestry, just like the average black person. what my natural hair is capable of dry or wet will not fit into any typing category and i really think some or most black people can say the same thing.
hair typing is great for possible product recommendations....hmmmmmmmm, maybe - but not even usually or with any real consistency. But one could get a very general idea if a person has examples of both dry and wet hair. hair's overall thickness and density as well as the diameter of the individual strands makes a huge difference!
i've seen some really thin densities (can you see the scalp or not while wet?) but the thinness is pretty well hidden when the hair is dry - especially curly hair! what my thin haired sister uses would probably not work for me but the only way i'd know this is if i were to see pictures of her hair while it's in it's wet state, not dry.
our hair textures and types are just too varied, different and wonderfully unique to fit into any one person's hair typing system with any real accuracy. heck, i find myself envying those who have a nice consistent texture all the way around, whether it's 3a or 4z!! seeing a variety of photos showing wet and dry hair and hair with product and without products really does much more for me than simply viewing someone's dry-only or wet-only photos.
but, that's just my lil ole humble opinion and we alllllllll know the saying regarding opinions, don't we?
