FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I know my hair type?

Your hair type is based on your curl pattern, which ranges from straight (Type 1) to coily (Type 4). You can identify it by looking at the shape of your strands when they’re clean, detangled, and air-dried.

Can I have more than one hair type?

Yes! Most people have a mix — for example, Type 3 curls at the crown and Type 4 coils near the nape. That’s why layering products for different needs can make a big difference.

Why do different hair types need different products?

Each curl pattern affects how natural oils travel down the strand. Tighter curls need more moisture and protein support, while looser patterns benefit from lightweight strengthening formulas.

Can I switch between collections?

Absolutely. Hair needs can change with seasons, styling habits, or scalp health — it’s all about listening to your hair and finding what works best for your texture.

What does coily hair usually need?

Coily hair needs deep moisture, scalp nourishment, and products that help protect the curl pattern from breakage.

How can I reduce breakage in coily hair?

Regular conditioning and gentle detangling are key. Using moisture-rich and strengthening collections helps keep coils flexible and less prone to snapping.

How often should coily hair be washed?

Coily hair typically does well with washing every 7–10 days, depending on buildup. A balanced routine keeps the scalp clean without stripping moisture.

How can I keep my coils defined for longer?

Layer hydration, minimize friction, and protect your hair at night. Moisture-first routines keep the curl pattern defined.

Are As I Am products safe for color-treated or relaxed hair?

Yes. All As I Am products are sulfate-free, silicone-free, and safe for chemically treated or color-treated hair.
