Afro hairstyles are characterized by their naturally curly and voluminous texture, often worn in a rounded shape. This style celebrates the beauty of African hair and can vary in size and shape, from small and tight curls to large, fluffy afros. The afro became a symbol of Black pride and cultural identity during the 1960s and 1970s. There are various ways to style an afro, including the classic rounded shape, tapered cuts, and even decorative elements like beads or hair accessories. Maintaining an afro often involves regular moisturizing and gentle care to keep the curls healthy and defined. Popular products include shea butter and coconut oil to enhance shine and moisture.
