Re: Hairtype me?

Personally I'd say more than a 1... maybe 2a? I'm not very good at this.

Re: Hairtype me?

I'd say 2a as well. Especially that the wave was still there after combing makes me think it's 2a, 1c waves tend to be more fragile (and not as pronounced). That's really very wavy...

If that were a 1b I'd be like a 0b or something! So yeah I'm going with 2a as well

Re: Hairtype me?

I'll be the freak and say 1c. However, it may shift to 2a as your hair gets a little longer.

Re: Hairtype me?

Hey! Your hair looks like mine (just in the texture, not color). The no-touch picture looks like 2a and the combed one looks like 1c. That's why I put down mine as 1c/2a, but I think we're really supposed to use the no-touch hair for typing, so I guess we're both 2a. The thing is, I don't feel right putting that down because most of the time my hair looks like your 2nd picture, which I think is a 1c.

Re: Hairtype me?

I'd say go with 2a as well, because I consider myself a 1a and I am wayyyy straighter than you. You have very nice waves by the way!

Re: Hairtype me?

I said 2a based on your untouched pic. I think it has too much of a natural wave to be a 1.

Re: Hairtype me?

Ok, I'm so bad at this - will leave the real advice to the experts - just wanted to say, your hair is very pretty!

Re: Hairtype me?

It's definitely a 2, and I'd actually say 2a/2b. I voted for 2b - wow, I feel like an outsider now

Re: Hairtype me?

I would say 2A as well. It is pretty wavy. I think you might have to retype it as it gets longer though...
