great, this thread is turning into a hair typing thing :lol: but that's great, b/c i'm so confused!
what happened to 3c though? b/c like someone said, i'm in the middle. Looser than 4a, tighter than 3b, except for the back area that seems to always be 3b. So, if this thread considers me a 4a, then i'll check in and say that i'm at brastrap, making my way to below brastrap.

Beautiful hair! Can I sent you a PM about your regime. I want to do C&G with no hair added too. What have you done to retain your length.

Thank you Rai!! I replied to your PM. I feel that washing my hair frequently is what got it past my shoulders (I wash and condition just about everyday). The C&G method has helped it reach my brastrap and further. Also, using the right comb has helped prevent major setbacks (huge balls of knots in my hair). I will continue the C&G method for one more year to see how long my hair can get.

Those pics are really helpful for me to see the difference between a 4a and a 4b. I'm definitely a 4a. I wish I could see a single strand of 4b hair. From the pic, it looks like a single strand of 4b hair would look like tiny, tiny S's or O's instead of sharp z's.

I love 4b hair and how thick and dense it is. It has a very uniform look to it. I love my 4a hair too, but it seems to have a mind of it's own sometimes, lol.

Strictly 4b and relaxed and past bra strap. I have a small patch of 4a at the top of my head, but the rest is straight coarse kinks, no defined curl/coils.

I love all these pictures of healthy, thick, relaxed 4a/4b hair! This is truly inspiring! I've got 5 or 6 inches to go before I'm past bra strap.

Count me in. My hair covers my bra strap but its not quite mid back length. I'm relaxed. Looking at my pre relaxed days I think I'm a 4a.

I'm a 4a & approx 1inch from brastrap but there are parts of my uneven hair that are just touching the top of my bras - does that count? :grin:

Other 4a's that I can think of that are brastrap - Supergirl, Isis & Moncherieamor

Thanks so much for starting this thread Sylver and thanks to the ladies who have shared pics of their lovely locs. I am soooo very inspired now, i will save this post as a favorite. I looove how thick yall hair is. It dispells the rumor that relaxed heads can't grow long thick hair. I am going to study these albums as well.... I'm a 4 a/b relaxed head and i have just reached my mini-goal of armpit and i am so excited to get brastrap. Thanks again ladies!!!

I have 4b/a hair and it's about 1" above waist. By my next relaxer (Dec 31st or so) it should be waist length. :)

Um, a lot of you saying you are 4a..I'm not so sure about..lolol. Supergirl, Den you all don't look like 4s?? Hm! I would say in the 3s. That pic helps...my hair is definitely 4b/a.
