This style is very versatile because it can be accomplished on hair of any length but works best with coarser textures. Spritz your hair with a light oil/moisturizing spray and massage it throughout.
Using a pick with non-metallic fingers, simply elevate the hair until it stands on end. It's a good idea to work on gently picking out the ends of your hair first and then working your way inward toward your scalp. Doing so will be less painful and will minimize breakage.
Finally using the palms of your hands, gently pat the newly formed 'fro until it takes on a neater, more rounded appearance.
For variation, a decorative scarf can be used as a head band, you can tight the head band and slide it slightly away from your forehead or this style can be combined with Bantu Knots, braids or cornrows for added variation.
Many people view the Afro as a style of definance; something not to be worn in professional settings. In our view, it's not the hair style itself that generates power but rather, the essence of the individual sporting the style.With children, Afros and Afro-Puffs are a cute, inexpensive way to show off their beautiful hair. Not only does this style halt the rush to the Kiddie Perm, it enables busy moms and dads to style hair quickly and effectively in a matter of minutes.
For adults, it's all in how you work it. Fantastic hair shouldn't cause embarrassment and although Afro's aren't for everyone. It is definately a style to be envied.
We've compiled some great photos of people sporting Afros in everyday life.&nb
As always, consult a licensed cosmetologist before initiating any style.
