15 Natural Hairstyles To Try!!!

In the world of quick weaves, sew ins and extensions, natural hair is trying to find a way a lane around all the fakeness. In recent years more hair care manufactures, including Carol’s Daughter and Pantene, have targeted women of color and provided shampoos, conditioner and oil for natural hair.  Don’t get me wrong, hair weaves are still the dominate hair trend among women of color but with new hair products and different styles, staying natural gives you more opportunity to do more with your hair. And if you are like me- new to the natural state- you may be unsure on what to do and how to do it. Courtesy of Madame Noir we have compile 15 natural hairstyles that only takes minutes but looks like it took you hours.

TWIST OUT

Wash and deep condition your hair. Part hair into sections. Take two strands and twist one strand around the other from scalp to ends. Let air dry or spend some time under the hair dryer, and then undo the strands. Prepare to be amazed at the lush world of curls this style will produce.

BANTU KNOTS

After two-strand twisting your hair, wind each twisted lock of hair around itself, forming a small knot. Secure with a hairpin or two. Wear this style for a while, then undo and sport curly twists. Next, you can undo that style for a curly twist out. You can’t go wrong with this three-style in one look.

CORN ROWS

Channel your inner Cleo from the movie Set It Off with this style.  Weave hair close to the scalp to achieve this whirlwind, braided look.

FLAT TWISTS

Parting hair from hairline to the nape of your neck or in the middle, section hair off using two strands and twist hair close to scalp down to the ends.

FRO’ MAGNUM

Pick your hair out with a hair pick, lift or big, wide toothed comb, and shape it into a glorious round afro. Angela Davis would be so proud!

FRO’ HAWK

After a wash and condition, use a tangle teaser to brush your hair up on one side and secure with bobby pins and/or hair pins. Repeat on the other side. Or you can braid up into a mohawk and rollerset the ends
