By Chinwe of Hair and Health

Finding styles for 4B/4C hair can be difficult due to the nature of our tight coils (or lack of coils) AND incredible shrinkage. These four youtubers can hopefully provide some inspiration for those who are in rut with styling their 4B/4C strands:

1. Chic Twists

In this tutorial, Zarah demonstrates a super easy updo with just three big twists on stretched hair. This style can be done on medium to long 4B/4C hair or modified for shorter hair.

2. Cute Updo
