Hey everybody,

When one of the other newbies asked the question about hair type it renewed my curiousity about my own hair type.  I was using the info from longhaircareforum and still wasn't sure.  But then other members suggested other websites, I still wasn't sure.  Please check these pictures out and tell me what you think?

Hello Vickyd,

 According to http://www.myhoneychild.com/Page.html - http://www.myhoneychild.com/Page.html  and the pictures that I saw, you seem to be a type 2 with a mixture of type 3 on the sides with the "S" shaped curls.

You may want to look at the description to see what you think. At the bottom there are pictures of people with that hair type as well.

thanks cmesweet - I have always wondered.  So I am a type 2 with some type 3.  What letters would you assign me, ex. 2C with 3C? TIA

You are welcome, well the crown looks with the curls look like a 3 A ...the new growth is kinda hard to tell since relaxed hair can weigh your hair down. So i'm not too sure about the type 2 but it looks like type 2 to me.

I hope i  helped a bit.
