Braid Out Success! Finally! 4c Hair

I'm sooo happy I did! It turned out FAB!

damn girl, your 4c hair looks looks WAY flyer than than my 3c-4b hair! i gots to learn your secrets! :D

@LadyObjection LOL, Thank you! :)

I’m glad you asked for the clarification. Many naturals I know feel that 3c hair is more desirable that 4c textured hair. So when I say someone is "trying to be 3c" what I mean is aesthetically they would like to have 3c hair-which is seen as being more manageable, thus desirable. It is an opinion based on personal observation, nothing more and nothing less. Have a great day.

@phillyinnyc I never asked for clarification, I actually agreed with you, but if someone else did thanks for explaining what you meant.

I don't think your 2010 braid was a failure...it looked really nice. The crimps/waves were a bit tighter, but they both looked nice. My 4C hair is outta control and I am having trouble with the frizz control.

@BluGyrl Thank you very much....I have to be careful when separating or else I will have a frizzy mess! I just keep my hands out of it.....which is very hard to do LOL

FINALLY Someone with 4c that makes it look great! There are not too many 4c girls on youtube, everyone is trying to be be a 3c, 4a, or 4b and some are CLEARLY a 4c, so go head' girl!

Damn girl, I'm looking you from France, and your hairs and your style are SO fly! My hairs are 4C type too, but I can't retain length as well as you do, I gotta find the right routine. You give me hope, Imma spend my night watching your vids and trying to follow your example. Thank you for sharing!

@phillyinnyc How do individuals "try" to be a 3c, 4a, or 4b? Isn't the typing according to the pattern of bends, waves, or coils in the hair? How do "you" determine a 4c "trying" to be something else?
