10 Easy-to-Recreate African-American Hairstyles

African American? You "guys" really need to stop. This is embarrassing. You don't have a clue. Full lace wigs and weaves are very different from African American hair.

I dont get it - these hairstyles dont seem african american to me. nearly everyones hair is straight. they are basically white hairstyles recreated with black hair. or more like indian/remy hair... -_- least favorite "beauty tips" I've seen yet

I've always liked Gabrielle Union's hair

I don't really know how I feel about the style selection. They just don't represent the range of AA styles that I think should be included. Not all AA women have weaves, extensions, and relaxed hair. The hairstyles themselves were pretty.

I think Jordin Sparks style makes her face look very pudgy, not at all flattering

I am extremely disappointed with this article. I do not see any variation on texture or length except for Selita Eubank's bob. I agree with stephanie_stewart's remark. Please reflect the diverse rainbow that I expect to see when looking up articles that purport to represent cutting edge hair trends among AA women.

To Ryan_montana: Are you a racist? Do you hate black people? If not it sounds like it.

The 'funny' thing about this is that some of these women were wearing weaves or wigs. There was no info on how to create these styles on 'fake' hair!

Speaking of lipstick... I take it that black women like REALLY RED lipstick. It looks terrible. Bright Red lipstick should be banned except for prostitutes.

They aren't just AA hairstyles. Just styles on AA women.

It's like putting "lipstick on a pig"--they're still ugly.

I like all the hairsy=tyles, especially Miss Cowell's! It was FAB U LOUS!!

I can't say I would call a style "African-American" if most African-Americans would have to relax their hair to achieve the style! I'm happy to see African-Americans included, but some natural looks would be appreciated.

I liked all the different styles.

Love the different hair! All were very beautiful :)

This was great. But I wish you included some Natural hair styles. I don't relax my hair and it's difficult for me to find styles I like

nice article

@ attagirl, I've always admired Gabrielle Union's hair. I didn't know she has press and curl. I myself have press & curl only (40+years, sometimes about 3 months I'll go natural to give my hair a break.) I have vowed never to discard my hot comb & curlers.

I can appreiciate you hard work on this article, HOWEVER, most of these celebrities are wearing weaves or wigs. LOL Most African American women do not have hair that looks anything like this. So the advice is highly irrelevant for most of us. LOL
