There
is a wide range of black hair types and styles. Natural types can be
curly, short, long, wavy or straight. Going from processed hair to
natural is quite a transition. Natural styles are often worn short and
coiled into braids or locks. These are becoming more popular because
they can be easier to manage. Also, this style is reflective of African
hair because the majority of African women wear natural hair.

1
Create two-strand twists all over the head. Section hair off
about an inch wide. Take two strands of hair between the the pointer
finger and thumb. Apply the holding agent and twist the hair around as
if making a plait. Use equal size of strands in each twist to make it
look even. -
2
Make dreadlocks by rolling hair between your fingers. Use a
holding agent like dreadlock gel. Section the hair according to the
desired size of the dread. Make bigger sections if you desire big
dreads. Apply the holding agent to the sectioned hair and twist the hair
between the pointing finger and thumb. Start twisting from the scalp
and work your way up to the end. -
3
Wear a natural Afro and part it for style. Comb the hair out
to resemble an Afro. Part the Afro either on the side or down the
middle. Pat your Afro down to give it form and shape. -
4
Braid your hair in cornrows. Part the hair from the front of
the head to back. Create parts according to desired braid size. Grab
three strands of hair in a section and weave them together on the
scalp. Design the cornrows in different styles to give them distinction.
