All About Type 3 Hair: The Curls That Don’t Come to Play
She’s curly. She’s cute.
But she’s not low effort. Let’s act like it.
Type 3 hair be like: “I woke up like this” but forgot to mention the satin bonnet, the pineapple bun, the detangling session, and the five-step product lineup it took to keep it together.
If you’ve got 3A, 3B, or 3C hair, you already know:
It’s giving volume, but it’s also giving “don’t touch my hair.”
We see you and we made GYEB products with your curls in mind.
✨ Type 3 Breakdown
3A: Loose, loopy curls. Soft but quick to frizz if left dry.
3B: Springy and defined. Prone to dryness and tangles.
3C: Tight curls, dense volume, and breakage if you rush through detangling.
💡 What Type 3 Hair Actually Needs
- Real moisture that soaks in.
- Definition without stiffness.
- Slip for detangling (without ripping your strands).
- Oils that seal, not suffocate.

💁🏾♀️ Curls Come With Character
Type 3 curls are not one-size-fits-all. They change with the weather, your water, and your mood. But one thing stays true, they deserve care.
If your curls are giving attitude, they probably just need better products.
