I wonder what it'll look like in a year's time? My 1 year nappiversary is in a month! :grin: It's NOW starting to hang. How long was it until you ladies got some hang time? My stretched hair is about lip in the front, chin length at the sides, collar bone in the back.

Hey! I think our hair looks very similar in texture. I don't have a good cam so I don't have the closeup pics like you do but my hair looks JUST like alot of your pics in person.

I was scrolling by your pictures and was JUST about to say that until I saw you quoted mine as well!! :lachen:
Your hair is lovely!! I found a hair twin. YAY!!!
 
Not really into hair typing, but here goes:
*DELETE*
I've gotten extremely paranoid about having my pics in the public areas of the forum.

Do I belong here or in the 3C thread? Not very familiar with hair typing I guess. Please let me know if I need more pics and what you think so that I can find my home and update my signature if needed. Thanks!!

It looks like you belong here or the 4a thread. But it's hard to be exact becuz the relaxed hair weighs down the curl of the newgrowth. You won't be able to see your true curl pattern until you chop off the relaxer.
 
I'll take some more photos this weekend when I wash again and try to hold up my lazy, relaxed ends. I love the wave pattern whenever I put my hair back in a ponytail but I'm a little leery of that style because I don't want to break at the holder line. Thanks so much NikStar!!
 
First pic is right after BC, the other pics are two months later (today) all damp/wet hair no product.

oh no its def some 4a within the depths of that puff lol maybe 3c/4a/slightly3b but i think 3b is a stretch...the top of my head has looser curls/waves but i think its too textured to be 3b and has more sheen as opposed to shine...idk hair types confuse me lol

Hi ladies. I'm 1 year post relaxer and doing a long term transition. I'm thinking I'm 3C/4A but not quite sure. Let me know if I'm in the right thread. :) (although know I won't be able to fully tell until I chop the relaxed ends).
