    The frustration comes when, "real 4c" girls get told they need to "take care of their hair better" to match the misrepresentation of 4c hair.

      Stop listening to people telling you that you need to take care of your hair in order to get long “good hair”. Not gonna happen. Your hair, like your skin tone is a result of your genes. If people in your fall don’t have long hair, chances are you won’t. It’s genetics. Stop being ignorant.

      That is the issue sis! I have been there. When I first started my natural hair journey, some "guru" was like I just needed to buy products and take more care of my hair so it can be more manageable, mind you I already had a lot of good products and did weekly treatments but it was still dense, thiccccccc and stubborn , coily and all that good stuff. Made me feel like I had bad hair for a while. I eventually gave up on my hair since it wasnt doing what madam guru said it should do. Took a while for me to realise that I had good hair just the way it was.

      Same. I'm like the girl who combed her hair in the shower but thicker and super tight coils. Soon as I step out the hot shower it shrinks to about 4 inches from my scalp. It's the heat that "relaxes" it. If I leave the water cooler it won't fall like that. It'll clump.

    I think the hair typing spectrum for black hair is just too damn narrow. Saying black hair can be categorized into 4 types ( four a,b,c and z) is like saying black girls only come in 4 foundation shades. There are so many hair types that are not quite 4b and not quite 4c but rather somewhere in between. I believe our hair textures is as diverse as our skin tones. Trying to categorize it in only 4 categories makes absolutely no sense and that is why there is always an argument when it comes to our hair textures.

I really think she was just using the wrong products and didn't know how to take care of our hair. I transitioned starting maybe last February and went natural in September and at first I was frustrated for the reason that you mentioned but luckily I've found good products and kinda know how to style it.

    For folks who are confused about why this important, imagine a light skinned or medium skinned Black woman doing a make up tutorial on her skin and calling the video "Make up for Dark Skinned Women" because she knows she'll get extra views. She would be taking advantage of the lack of representation of dark skin in the beauty industry to give herself more clout, even though she isn't a dark skinned woman. That is the equivalent of what some of these youtubers do when they call themselves 4c. It's erasive to women with 4c hair who are already struggling to be recognized in an industry that doesn't value our hair texture or see it as pretty and feminine.

      I see this kind of the same as all of beauty TH-cam. Almost everybody has professional lighting and does the full full full coverage foundation, lots of colour corrector, concealer, layer after layer. It looks like perfection on camera, sure. But IRL? It looks like shit. And it's really unfair to viewers to not be honest about that. Because they are not going to get the same results if they follow tutorials, including when using the exact same techniques and even products.
      Because real people don't walk around with ring lights surrounding them. 🤷🏻‍♀️
      So much of beauty social media is fakery and bullshit, and it just ends up making people feel bad about themselves for their perceived "faults," lack of "talent," or whatever. It's depressing that we do this to each other.

      Sometimes it’s hard. At first I thought I had 4c, I didn’t think it was bad I was happy to embrace it... but i found hard to understand... I wish I can go back to my new natural hair journey self and be liek “no boo boo that’s not 4c you’re just lazy and you’re hair needs moisture” 💀 in fact I’m no where near 4c (when moisturized) I’m a mixture to 4a-4b and definitely some parts 3c.
      Again it’s not that I wanted praise or ever felt my hair was ugly. I just was misguided. Still misguided because I wish I can say what exactly is my hair type. It’s extremely hard when you have influencers having the same hair as me saying it’s 4c.

    I don’t think all of them are saying they are 4c for the “clout”, they just don’t know their hair type. Knowing your hair type is difficult because hair types are more of a spectrum. I also think porosity and density can play a role in what 4c hair looks like on different people.

      na it really doesn't. Moisturized is moisturized no matter your porosity. Porosity will only affect how your hair responds to moisture but every porosity type gets there. I live in West Africa so as you can imagine, I didn't even know Africans could have looser hair types. Almost everyone is 4c here.And I mean the real 4c like starpuppy and all. And everyone is diverse in thickness, length and density yet it's pretty obvious it's still 4c. Those things don't affect the look as drastically as you think🤷🏾‍♀️

      Curl pattern is the least important factor on how products will work on your hair. Strand thickness and porosity (but mostly strand thickness) are what ultimately determines it, and thus how your hair will look in the end.
      Forget the hair chart, it never had 4c hair in mind anyway. Just focus on cottony vs silky and the diameter of the curl.

    Most of these people that claim that they have 4C hair only say that so when it it turns out all curly it’s like more of a flex. It’s like me telling my friend that I haven’t seen in a long time that I lost 10lbs but really I lost 20, but when she see me I know she gonna be extra impressed. I hope I make sense that I don’t sound dumb lol.

  • @neenee9809

    especially when you have LONG 4c hair whenever it's wet it the curls hang more and look looser because the water is weighing it down and loosens the curl but of course when its dry it shrinks up and looks like the typical 4c curl pattern.

      My 4a parts don't look like that under running water. They loosen to like 3c texture
      My 4b just laughs at me. It ain't stretching anywhere(and it dries in 5 min)
      And I have really high porosity hair. Hair goes from soaking wet to damp and shrunken as soon as I step out of the stream and fully dry in about 20 min.
      So I find it hard to believe that clip.Her high porosity hair is supposed to look a much frizzier but slightly shrunken version of her shower look
      For tighter patterns like 4b and 4c, water does not stretch it much.

We as black ppl are always labeling ourselves and putting each other in categories then we get upset when other races do it too us! Black Hair comes in many different variations. Who are we as spectators to categorize someone? Maybe they’re saying 4c as a reference to the thickness/coarseness of their hair and not the curl pattern. Hair is hair and black hair is beautiful.

      Yes but if at some point '4c' starts looking obviously like 4b or 4a and if the '4c' is weighed so much by weight so it always looks 4b or 4a, it's now 4b/4a.There is no confusion when 4a becomes 3c. Why do '4c'(questionable) folks believe that their pattern can never change? Everybody's pattern can change. And btw I've never seen real 4c change with length. It's usually 4b and 4a that can get weighed down like that. If it changes drastically, chances are you were never 4c

    Ok so I started my natural hair journey about a year ago and I have 4c hair. I'm 23 and before I decided to just wear my natural hair I had never really had to take care of it. I would take out whatever protective hairstyle I have and I'd have someone from my family do my hair the next day or 2 days later top.
    One thing that made me realise I have 4c hair is that when I started looking up online how to take care of my hair I would find very veeeeeery few videos of people who had hair that looked like mine. And it made me feel bad and I almost gave up on it because I thought there was something wrong with my hair bc it was a lot more kinky and coily than what I'd seen in supposedly 4c videos.
    Anyway what I'm getting at with this is that one of the main problems with not 4c haired ppl using this # is that for ppl who want to start taking care of their hair it 1) might confuse them and lead to them doing stuff to their hair that is not adapted which can lead to actual damage 2) is a reminder that even inside the black community their hair type is not seen as desirable and even if the name 4c IS trendy it doesn't mean actual 4c hair is genuinely seens as as pretty as other hair types
    And for people who are not comfortable with wearing their natural hair yet it might just discourage them. It's really not about gate keeping. It's about common sense. This is not a competition, be proud of your hair, whatever type you are. And as you said, all hair are beautiful. But please let 4c hair have this space. (Sorry for the super long comment 😅)

    i’m so happy you made this video because i’m tired of girls saying they have 4c hair when they don’t!!

    This is exactly why I don't even bother typing my hair. 50-11 people who've never met me jumping down my throat about why it's not what I think it is.

    Finding what works for your hair is what makes 4c hair more easily manageable . It’s a journey for us all but you do have to figure out what works

    The second video! That’s what my hair does, especially in the front. The curls look so loose under water and when brushing but then let it sit for 2 seconds, boom. It’s 4c hair, it’s just weird.

    4C hair is gorgeous likewise all hair texture, but misleading people about your hair texture is what i find alarming, come and see my 4c hair and know what 4c hair really look like,the last video really get to thinking like WHAT? That type 3 hair sist🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

      All hair types are beautiful as long as it's healthy! What is being gained by saying 4c or saying 3a? I'm curious.

    That’s the magic of 4C hair. Before the second lady popped up I was gonna comment about the first girl to say that her hair may be some 4C once it’s dry. it was such a fast clip to really get a good look and we didn’t see it dry without being styled in any way. My hair is 4C & waist length and it looks like a completely different head of hair when I’m standing under the shower head. The second girls video proved what I was gonna initially comment, that once your hair reaches greater lengths, when you drench it in water under the shower head it will make your curls appear looser than they are...because that’s how gravity works lol. All that weight from all that water added with the weight from length will have folks confused for sure.

      Yep. My sisters hair is the same. My hair looks much looser when it's wet too

      I agree! I’m mainly 3c/4A/B but there are parts of my hair that look very different and more course when dry.

      The first was not 4c

      Typically 4c hair shrinks and coils up real tight when wet. Even when I detangle it shrink up to 75%

      Whitney Ndongo I think that has to do with the porosity of your hair though not so much the hair type.

    I think a lot of people were confused bc their hair is a mix of textures and / or their hair is dehydrated and appears 4c but the truth is in that tiny , tiny coil…

    My 4C hair looks like, springs back like, coils like, shrinks like and looks like after intense layered products. I think we all have to remember that the longer the hair, the healthier the hair, the different it appears once dry. Usually shrinks in rainy or humid or too dry atmospheres. It's all magic!!
