Black Hairstyles Gallery

one thing i've noticed with hair as far as versatility goes, is that it is much easier to start out with nappy hair and go straighter (if you wish) than to start out with straight hair, and go curly/nappy. for example: (this the same lady... her hair is natural in each photo.) fro loose curls tighter curls wow... how can you not think black hair is the bomb?

ok, this is so cute/amazing. i'm throwing a question out there... how exactly do you do this? okay, kinkycurlycool provided the how-to for the rod-set. here it is: To rod you will need: 1. Mousse 2. Orange Rod Rollers (or what over color you have) 3. End papers (to prevent hair from snagging on the rollers) 4. Small tooth comb to help smooth hair before putting in rollers 5. Large tooth comb to continue helping while during general combing How to: At this point, hair is probably at least 80% dry and still kind of damp. Hair is still sectioned into large twist. Use the wide tooth comb to comb through each twisted section I started from the back (nape of neck) applying rollers. It will probably be easier to take down the back twist and part off your first row and then re-twist hair I put 4 rollers in the back and my goal was to do the brick layering system For each part: Apply small amount of mousse to sectioned hair Smooth with small tooth comb Encase (taco) hair with end pape...

so i am excited about this BGLH first: vanisha, who models and dances professionally, has submitted her photos . i was talking to J the other night, and we discussed how a lot of black female singers don't wear their hair naturally, while a higher number of black female models do. i definitely want to do my little part to encourage this trend and give some shine to an up and coming natural model/dancer. "this is my story of 3 years :] — from shoulder length permed hair, to super short twists, then i found out about HAIRDYE (lol), and so many different hairstyles... (i even once) took the time to straighten my natural hair and curl it!! i'm known for my big hair, i'm a professional dancer/model and it really sets me apart from everyone." ~vanisha professional photos everyday natural looks straight/relaxed looks

Curled around the finger on wet hair: I know this style works better on a looser wave/curl. Here's her base texture: She's also a jewelry maker... She crocheted these earrings, and I think that's dope.
