I am currently struggling and transitioning back to my natural hair and oh boy it's really a struggle.
Just like you my mind is racing everyday and these questions frequently arise
- 'How should I comb my hair for work today?'
- 'How would I comb my hair when I have decided to go completely natural?'
Sooooo ladies I decided to do some intensive research on professional natural hairstyles for African women. This certainly assisted me and I hope it helps my readers.
Short Hair Style
Don't be afraid to rock your hair short or very low. I'm still trying to build the confidence to rock a short style hence the reason I'm toggling between natural and relaxed hair. Here are some pictures of professional short styles.

Cornrows


Look out for the video that show you how to plait that perfect cornrow.
Twist
Twisting your natural hair allows you to leave it out or even style it.

Classic One
You can't go wrong with your hair comb in one. I know this maybe boring but it's classic and chic.
Remember guys the key to professional hairstyles is being neatly groomed and avoid bright colours like purple, pink and green.
I hope these hairstyles were useful. Look out for the videos on French Braid and Simple Twist.

I love these styles. I remember when I had transitioned from relaxed to natural I had difficulty in finding appropriate styles that I felt comfortable and secure with. Unfortunately I was limited to braiding and weaving until my hair had grown out a bit buy this article has provided some awesome ideas to try.
ReplyDeleteI loooove these ideas... very trendy and the best part is i dont have to go to the hairdresser every week.
ReplyDeleteTotally believe in going natural..It's the best thing for African women..it completes us..my beliefs.We're naturally beautiful when we keep it natural.
ReplyDeleteI loved this article. It's nice that women are being encouraged to wear their natural hair in a professional/corporate setting and being given helpful ways to achieve this. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteBe your natural self....I always say
