Guía de tipos de rizos 2A a 4C
Most clients don't know their curl type. That's fine. Yazmin reads it during the consult. But knowing it gives you better language for your routine and better filters when you're choosing products. Here's the whole spectrum, explained without jargon.
Ondulado
Wavy hair frizzes when treated as straight hair. Most stylists don't see the wave pattern at first because they wet the hair before cutting. Dry consultations solve this.
Rizado
Type 3 is the most familiar curl type and the one most products are marketed toward. It also has the most internal variety. Most Type 3 heads have multiple sub-patterns across the scalp.
Enrulado
Type 4 is the most underserved in mainstream salons. The right cut technique requires dry shaping in the natural pattern with no stretching. Most type 4 clients arrive at Yazmin's chair after years of bad cuts elsewhere.

Hair density and porosity vary by type. Type 2 needs lighter product. Type 4 usually needs more moisture and slower-absorbing oils.
