How to Answer

Choose the option that most closely resembles your hair type. If you’re unsure about which category you fall into, leave your hair free of products and let it air dry the next time you wash it.

If your hair dries straight without a bend or curl, then you have straight hair (type 1).

If your hair dries with a slight curve or “S” shape, then you have wavy hair (type 2).

If your hair dries with springy ringlets or corkscrew curl patterns, then you have curly hair (type 3).

If your hair dries with dense spirals or zig-zag patterns and shrinkage occurs as it dries, then you have coily hair (type 4).
