Moisturizing 3b culrs3/20/2023 Let me start by saying, I LOVE your blog and all your curly tips!!! I can relate to almost all of your posts, as I have been experimenting with all types of products and techniques for about 15 years now! My biggest problem is determining how much I should condition/moisturizer to battle the coarseness & frizz in my hair. Not only knowing your curl type helps you to know whether your curls need more moisture, but also your curls’ texture greatly defines which products for curly hair are the best for your curls – stay tuned for the upcoming post about texture! Make sure your curls get enough moisture and to get that you might not use any shampoo at all. Therefore this curl pattern definitely allows some heavier moisturizing products like a deep conditioner, a cream or butter. Type 4 curls are really tight and they shrink a lot (because the curls are in a tight z pattern). To learn more about how to take care of 3b curls, read my interview with Milica. Browse through the blog to get to know more about how I take care of my curls or read my routine on Naturall圜urly. If your curl pattern is either 3b or 3c make sure to add a leave-in conditioner or even leave in some “normal” conditioner after washing your curls. Generally type 3 curls need quite an amount of moisture. Type 3a curls are curly but in contrary to 3b curls they’re still bigger and not as tight as 3b curls. For type 2 curls I suggest rinsing your conditioner after washing your curls as not to over-condition. Especially if you’re a 2a make sure to throughly rinse any products to prevent them from weighing down your waves. Typical for type 2 curls is the S pattern: While 2a curls are slightly wavy, 2b curls already have more waves and 2c curls already start to form some curls, but compared to 3a curls they don’t yet form “complete curls”. Plus, I didn’t need a lot of product to work up a nice lather, so I was able to clean my hair without stripping it of essential moisture.Look at the pictures to find out which curl type you are!
