Information from www.Blacknaps.org
The type 4 hair patterns range from a spiral curl to a tighter curl with almost no definition. For us kinkier queens we don't have very much space between our curls. Our pattern is very tight and open to hair breakage and dryness. 4b and 4c hair don't hold water very well, because of all the bends and turns we have, make it that much hard for moisture to glide down our hair strands. To keep moisture in try protective styling such as buns, braids, and twists. Protective styling is focusing on hiding the ends of your hair and little manipulation of your hair. Our hair has a cotton texture to it and can look dry when its already moisturized. All curly hair types benefit from a moisture rich regimen. Washing and conditioning (or CO-WASHING/PRE-POO) your hair once a week is a good rule to remember (in colder temperatures. Doing protective styles, balancing protein products and moisturizing products, and trimming as needed will improve or maintain the health of your hair. Remember no two heads of hair are alike. Leave combs and brushes alone for a while, try finger de-tangling. Its time consuming but better when it comes to having fragile hair. I hope I helped you guys out.
