Type 4 hair (coily)
Type 4 hair is known for its tight curls and coils, with 4C being the most tightly coiled texture. 4C hair typically has little to no defined curl pattern, appearing densely packed and springy. This hair type is highly versatile, allowing for a wide range of styles, but it also tends to be delicate and requires proper moisture and care to maintain its health. 4C hair can shrink up to 75% of its length when dry, making it a beautiful canvas for creativity and expression.

Type 3 Hair (Curly)
Type 3 hair features well-defined curls that range from loose loops to tight spirals. This hair type is full of body and often appears shiny, though it can be prone to frizz and dryness if not properly moisturised. Type 3 curls are typically bouncy and have a natural ‘S’ shape, providing lots of volume and movement. Whether you have soft, loose curls or tighter ringlets, Type 3 hair offers beautiful texture that can be styled in various ways to enhance its natural curl pattern.
type 2 hair (wavy)
Type 2 hair lies between straight and curly, characterised by soft waves that form an ‘S’ shape. These waves can vary from fine and barely there to more defined and coarse. Type 2 hair tends to be smooth and has a natural sheen, but it can sometimes become frizzy or lose its definition in humidity. It’s a versatile hair type that can be styled to enhance the waves or straightened with minimal effort.
type 1 hair (straight)
Type 1 hair is straight and smooth, often reflecting light for a naturally glossy appearance. This hair type tends to be less prone to frizz and holds onto moisture well, making it easy to manage. Although straight hair typically has less volume, it can be styled in various ways, from sleek and polished to adding waves and texture with tools. Type 1 hair is versatile, with the ability to maintain a smooth, sleek look effortlessly.
