What You Need to Know About 3C, 4A, 4B and 4C Hair Types
Welcome to the vibrant world of 3C to 4C hair, where curls, coils, and kinks reign supreme. This beautiful hair spectrum plays a huge part in black culture, with its texture, personality, and endless styling possibilities. From defined ringlets to tight zig-zag coils, 3C to 4C hair is a celebration of natural beauty and individuality. If you're just starting your natural journey, embracing your texture can be a daunting yet fulfilling experience, but with the right care, patience, and confidence, your crown can thrive like never before. Find the right products, tips, and tricks that will help your curls shine and flourish every day.
How to Recognize the Different Hair Types
3C, 4A, 4B, and 4C hair each have their own unique curl pattern and texture. Below is a guide to help you decipher which category your hair fits into:
3C Hair
3C hair is made up of tight, springy curls, roughly the width of a pencil. It’s densely packed and has a lot of volume with a soft texture. These curls are well-defined and naturally form ringlets, but can be prone to frizz and dryness without proper moisture.
4A Hair
Unlike hair type 3C, 4A hair has soft, tightly coiled curls with a visible S-pattern. Each strand is well-defined and is perfect for wash-and-go options. This type retains moisture better than other 4 types but still needs consistent hydration to prevent breakage.
4B Hair
4B hair is described as having a zigzag or Z-pattern, with less defined curls and more of a fluffy texture. It’s prone to shrinkage and dryness, so it thrives on rich moisturizers and gentle styling to avoid tangles and damage.
4C Hair
4C hair has the tightest, coiliest texture of the group, with an undefined curl pattern. It's dense, fragile, and highly shrinkable, requiring regular deep conditioning, protective styles, and lots of love to stay healthy and strong.
A Hair Care Routine for 3C – 4C Hair
Each of the hair types is uniquely beautiful and requires its own blend of care and styling techniques. However, caring for 3C - 4C hair is all about moisture, protection, and gentle handling, so they share a common maintenance routine:
Cleanse - Use a sulfate-free shampoo or co-wash to gently cleanse the scalp without stripping natural oils.
Deep Condition - After cleansing, apply a moisturizing deep conditioner and let it sit for 20–30 minutes.
Moisturize & Seal - Use the LCO or LOC method (Leave-in, Cream/Oil) to hydrate your strands. Heavy creams and butters help to lock in moisture.
Detangle - Detangle gently with a wide-tooth comb or fingers when hair is wet and slippery with conditioner.
Protective Styling (Optional) - Styles like twists, braids, or buns help retain moisture and reduce manipulation.
Night Care – Sleep with your hair wrapped in a satin or silk bonnet/scarf or on a silk pillowcase to prevent breakage and moisture loss.
Following this routine will grow strands of full, healthy, natural hair.
