Am I a 3A? Help!

Hey curlie gurlies!

I'm semi-new here, just had to re-register! I need help figuring out what type I am, I read through all of them but still need help if you didn't mind!

I think that I might be a 3A because I have naturally curly hair and it's really thin and fine, and I do shed a lot in the shower, which is normal. When I let it air dry, it's straight obviously and it has some frizz but not a lot, and I have two things that I cannot remember that are beside your face and stick up next to your bangs, I cannot stand them! HELP!

And also a 2B because I have a little bit of frizz when my hair dries.

I wish I was a 2A though because I love the type of hair and it's so cute and wavy! I kind of have ringlets like that when my hair gets wet again in the rain, plus more frizz!

I can send you a picture sometime this weekend, when I get my camera back.

And I need a new routine, so any suggestions would be helpful! because mine sucks!

Thanks!

Do you use styling products? I always put gel in and that should help with frizz. Some other things that help with frizz:

Don't brush your hair, only comb or finger detangle when it's wet with conditioner in.
Put some gel into your hair while it's soaking wet.
Dry it with a t-shirt or a microfiber towel and this will cut down on frizz too.
Don't touch it until it's completely dry, then you should be able to scrunch any gel crunch out gently.

Products- Elucence is an awesome, moisturizing line that's available in curlmart. Alot of folks really like the Suave conditioners and some VO5 ones if you're looking for drugstore lines.

Sorry I can't offer more help, hopefully others will chime in.
