Black people with naturally straight hair, also known as "Type 4 straight hair," are individuals of African descent who possess naturally straight locks.
This unique hair type is known for its sleek appearance, manageable texture, and resistance to tangles and breakage. Historically, individuals with Type 4 straight hair have faced societal pressures and Eurocentric beauty standards that favor curlier hair textures. However, in recent years, there has been a growing appreciation and recognition of the beauty and versatility of naturally straight black hair.
