Hi guys, I can't tell what my curl type is. The ends don't really curl, but I think that's because they have been bleached and colored more than I can remember, and then heat styled daily up until recently. They make it look wavy but I think otherwise it looks kind of curly... I'm not sure what my curl type is though. Thanks everyone!

It looks 2a to me; some of the curlier strands might be 2b. Remember that hair type is less important to understand than hair properties, like texture and porosity.

I actually think it looks more 2b; it's hard to tell from pictures, but it looks like even though you have a lot of hair, the texture might be fine and easily weighed down. Like rainboe said, your properties are more important than curl pattern; but if you find the right products for your specific hair properties, I think you'll see some increase curl too.
