in Hair Type 2
Hey there! I'm new to the CG way of life but have been obsessively researching and reading these boards for the past month. I'm not "true" CG as I am trying to use up the really expensive Aveda shampoo/conditioner/gel I recently bought before I discovered this website.
However, I have learned SO MUCH! Oh my. My husband loves my newly "plopped" hair in the evening
and the oh so attractive "pineapple" also in the evening but I'm so happy with my 2 and sometimes 3 day hair. Before my curls would get smooshed and now when I take down my hair in the morning, it is so pretty and fluffy for the most part (got to figure out how to keep my crown/top of head from getting flattened).
I hope it is ok to ask but I'd like to know my type for sure. I know it is 2 something. I get big fat sausage curls underneath but I wish I could get more spirals at the root. I live in hot humid FL (which is not so hot or humid right now, love it!) and when I even slightly perspire, everything at my crown goes utterly flat. My hair is very fine, thin and I think kinda pourous. The GVP conditioning balm is waaaay too heavy for me. But yesterday, I tried the sample I got of Amourai's Duchess of Curls enhancer and BRHG. The pics below are of 2nd day hair (it's kinda first day hair as I washed and did all that last night). But I'm really happy with it. Every other day or so is a new experiment seems like!
If all you kind hearted souls could please let me know am I 2a, b or c, I would greatly appreciate it!
This is a great board and I LOVE all the information on here! Thank you!!!!

My hair is very fine and is a medium porosity.
Thanks for all your opinions on my curl. I'm really loving it lately. I've always had curly hair and made peace with it a LONG time ago - it is way too hard to fight the humidity in FL to have straight hair.
But thank you for the welcome - I LOVE LOVE LOVE the 2 Board!!!

I think our winter is everyone else's "mild summer" hehe.
You know why pandas are endangered? Cause pandas ain't got no game.
