According to Dr. Kari Williams, a trichologist and cosmetologist, some of the myths about 4C hair include that it is coarse, difficult to manage, and lacks stylistic adaptability.
Though 4C strands are delicate, it’s crucial to avoid manipulating them as much as possible. The hair’s coiled structure makes it no less controllable than other curl types, and it’s actually one of the most adaptable curl kinds available.
When style the 4c hair, you should make minimal use of heat styling tools, if you want to style with it then dont forget to use a heat protectant.
1. Wash and Go Natural Hair
It’s sometimes great to get back to basics and style your hair in a simple wash-and-go style like this one from TWA. Remember to apply a leave-in moisturizer before leaving the house.
This deep conditioning treatment is free of sulfates, parabens, mineral oil, and gluten, and contains moisturizing argan oil and the super antioxidant vitamin C. Naturally, I wore it overnight and awoke with wonderfully soft curls that were so defined that I was able to achieve the best wash-and-go I’d ever had.
2. Locs
This look is one of the stunning hairstyles that you can rock. “Locs are the ultimate length-retention style for 4C clients who have ‘long hair’ goals,” stated Dr. William. “And they still offer the same styling versatility as loose coils with a simplified hair care regimen and more freedom from daily manipulation.”
Slay the 4c locs with the brown ombre hair color.
3. Knotless Box Braid Bun
For all curl types, knotless box braids are a popular protective hairdo. Place some multicolored rubber bands on some of the braids and pull them up into a bun on top of your head, as seen above, to add some color to the design.
