I broke down and got a hair analysis, so I can finally join in the fun and find some hair twins
Hair Biography
Curl Pattern: Mix of 2b and 2c
Texture: Medium
Porosity: Medium
Density: Thick
Elasticity: Normal
Characteristics: Canopy is much less wavy than underneath.
CG/ModCG/not CG: Technically ModCG--I'm personally avoiding 'cones and sulfates, but my stylist still uses them on me. I'm on a mission to convert her.
Hair ingredient likes: A little keratin; moisture...but I'm still experimenting.
Hair ingredient dislikes: Silk protein--it kills my waves!
Hard/Soft Water: Soft
HG/Go-to Products: FSG is my new favorite thing EVER. Love GVPCB for my RO. I'm still experimenting with various things, though.
Average climate/dew points: Dry. Dews usually in the 20s or 30s, but they can range from the teens to the upper 40s.
Fall/Winter combos: We get more moisture in the winter, so I predict a little more humectant use in my future.
Spring/Summer combos: Avoid glycerin like the plague!
Favorite styling techniques and why: Supersoaker and the Denman brush--such fabulous wurls and clumps! Diffusing hasn't gone too horribly, but I don't tend to need body.
Techniques that didn’t work and why: Plopping is okay, but often makes some of the waves near my face all wonky.
Hair Twins: Not sure yet!
