“insert” 4a pics here ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

Napp

Ms. Nobody
there are only a few ladies in here with full 4a hair type. the rest need to go to the 3c/4a thread. it's throwing a lot of folks off.
actually i think there are alot of 4a/4bs and 4bs in this thread. there are only 1 or 2 people that looked looser than a 4a imo


ok thats all im sayin':look:

HI!!!!! My name is Jess and I am a 4A (I have 4B on the sides by my ears, but not enough...right? lol DON'T MAKE ME LEAVE!!!! LOL) Here are my pics, I just BC'd in Sept. 2010 and I have maybe 1.5"-2" of hair all around? Or less, IDK...okay here we go:

October 2010 Wash n' Go


Top of my hair November 2010


Side of my hair November 2010

Freshly washed December 2010




OKAY, here is a gripe: is anybody else's hair so soft it is naturally frizzy? Like my hair is maaaaad soft (not bragging, it is really soft, no matter what state it's in) and it is so soft it's frizzy, even when it's wet it's frizzy, my 4A sisters, is that normal or an indication of something: like porosity issues or a messed protein/moisture balance? IDK, but if my hair wasn't frizzy ALL THE TIME I would love it, I just like it now (lol)


Your hair looks VERY soft indeed!:yep: My hair is like that as well...EXTREMELY frizzy, but naturally soft (even though it doesn't look that way)...My hair ONLY curls with product, otherwise, it's frizz city all day! lol I've learned to embrace it though....

Here's an example of the frizz I have...




See the frizz?? Yes, I have a LOT but my hair felt like butter....:yep:

You have some frizz, but at least you were able to smooth the top...my hair is still mad short, so I can't do anything about it. How long is your hair now, if I may ask? Your hair looks great! Gives a fellow frizzy city resident hope!

tHENATuRALhAiRpRoJEcT I appreciate you doing this. Looks as beautiful as I thought it would. :) Thanks for not disappointing! And I can see the difference between the combed out and the left alone.

If you did WNGs a few more times, you'd have the clumps we see in others, but you're probably like me who's anal about keeping strands separated. Still, there's no doubt that you've found your home.

ok ill bite. I figured this thread would be more active since I've seen a lot of 4As on the board. Here goes:

natural

old pic of air drying/shrinkage


(in a weave, wet, then blow dried)


blowdried without comb attachment


blowdried with comb attachment



twistouts


sorry so large


detangled puff


bun



flat ironed

wow...beautiful hair! I always wonder what my hairtype was (I'm newly natural, but waaay to short tell now) but after seeing ur first pic airdried I remember that's EXACTLY what my hair looked like when I was pressed! Can we say HAIRspiration? :lachen::lachen::lachen:
