Explore Hair Type

Describe the visible shape of your hair as you ordinarily observe it. This hair type quiz uses broad texture descriptions rather than a numbered commercial system, a health assessment or a judgment about attractiveness. These four original result descriptions are metaphors or preference summaries for this activity. They are not validated types, permanent identities or a ranking of people.

Mostly straight pattern: You described a generally straight visible pattern. Hair can vary between areas and with styling, so use this as a broad observation rather than a permanent technical classification.

Mostly wavy pattern: You described visible bends or waves. Different sections can behave differently, and a short quiz cannot measure every aspect of strand shape or styling behaviour.

Mostly curly pattern: You described recurring curls or loops. Treat the result as a descriptive starting point, not a product prescription or a measure of how hair should look.

Mostly coily pattern: You described compact coils or tightly repeated bends. The label is a broad visual description and does not infer ancestry, health or care requirements.

Read the closest match as a starting point for reflection. You may recognize parts of several descriptions, and an answer can depend on your setting, mood or constraints. The quiz adds option weights and displays a highest-scoring category; ties follow the configured result order. Changing a choice can change the result without making either version your one true type. Keep the description that is useful, question the parts that do not fit and use real-world information for important decisions.

Just for fun, not professional advice. This quiz does not diagnose a condition, measure a fixed identity or determine what you should do.
