I am in the 4z camp. My hair texture is just a whole different animal - NG and natural for me goes beyond tightly coiled - it can be brick city up in there. I stopped going to hairdressers because throughout my life, they would underprocess and ask me to come back in a couple weeks so they could fix it, or want to "marinate" it to the pt of damage to pull the kinks out. Every stylist I ever went to would comment on the rough texture of my hair. Those experiences led me to become the master of my own hair, & when it's good & healthy, it's gorgeous but it can be something to manage.
