Yes, it's common to have a combination of wavy and curly textures. This mixed pattern often means different sections of the hair have varying curl definitions, requiring a tailored approach to styling and product selection.

2C hair is characterized by defined waves that start closer to the scalp and tend to be thicker and more prone to frizz than other wave types. Styling products that provide hold and definition are typically beneficial for managing 2C hair.

The four main hair types are straight (Type 1), wavy (Type 2), curly (Type 3), and coily (Type 4). Each type is further categorized into subtypes (A, B, and C) based on the tightness and pattern of the hair.

Wavy hair is classified as Type 2, while curly hair is classified as Type 3. Type 2 hair forms an 'S' shape, and Type 3 hair forms defined curls, ranging from loose loops to tight spirals.
