When bad hair days are your everyday reality, it really zaps the fun out of your morning routine. Thankfully, all you need to do to make your hair perfect is know your hair type and how to operate with it!
In the 90s, Andre Walker, one of the most talented hairstylists who worked with Oprah Winfrey and Halle Berry, came up with his own hair typing system. It was originally created for his hair care line but quickly became widely popular. Basically, Andre Walker classifies not one or two but 9 different types of hair! And it's time to find out which one of them is yours.

SUMMARY:
- In the Andre Walker hair typing system, everything comes down to how curly your hair is naturally.
- 1A hair is usually not thick at all and extremely soft and fine. Its biggest advantage is that it naturally looks really shiny.
- 1B hair, on the other hand, is kinda thick and has great volume near the roots, so it looks way more full than 1A hair type.
- 1C hair is really thick and has impressive volume. However, it's almost impossible to curl! This type is pretty common among Asian women.
- 2A hair is right in between wavy and straight. Without any styling, it tends to form weak S-shaped strands, curling a bit at the ends.
- 2B hair has way more visible and prominent S-shaped curls. It can be slightly frizzy as well, adhering to the shape of your head.
- 2C hair combines wavy and curly hair. It's very frizzy, quickly curls up in humid environments, and has tons of volume and generally thicker waves.
- 3A hair is shiny and great at taking any form you want it to. This type has a very definite S-shape which makes it appear full and healthy.
- 3B type has a smaller curl pattern than 3A, ranging from spiral-like curls to tight corkscrews. It also has a combination texture.
- 3C hair is actually thinner than 3A and 3B but its curls are smaller which makes it appear thicker. Plus, it's very tight, almost to the point of being kinky.
- 4A hair has an S-shaped pattern if you stretch it, but usually it's just tight coils. It tends to be thin, brittle, and fragile.
- 4B hair bends with really sharp angles and often has a Z-shape and zigzag-like curls. Just like 4A, this type is pretty fragile as well.
- And 4C type is the hardest to style and take care of. It doesn't have a definite curl pattern which makes it look awesome but extremely hard to comb.
- Straight and soft hair like yours gets dirty and oily pretty quickly, so try to pick the shampoos that have curative clay as one of the components. It will make your hair stay clean longer.
- If you fall into the second hair group, your hair care should be completely different. Your main task is to make your hair look thick without it looking crazy and messy. Try to look for shampoos and conditioners with a moisturizing effect.
- Curly-haired guys and girls from hair group number 3 have pretty much the same end goal as people with type 2 hair - keeping their curls hydrated.
- And, finally, type 4, it's your turn! Your hair doesn't get oily that easily, so unlike hair type number one, you don't have to wash it that often. The softer your shampoo and conditioner are, the better.
