One of the most popular styles for natural hair is the Afro.Both men and women wear it, and it is suitable for any length.It can be difficult to get natural hair to stand up.It is easy to make an Afro stand up.You can still make your hair stand up using a slightly different technique if you don't have an Afro.
Step 1: To clean hair, apply coconut oil.
Olive oil, shea butter, and a store-bought product are other types of oil you can use.Spread the product on your hair with your fingers or a wide-toothed comb after you coat your hands.You will not be putting your hair up into a protective style, so you don't need a lot here.
Step 2: You can volumize your hair by fluffing it out.
Use your fingers to comb out your hair.You can jiggle your hair by digging your fingers into it.This will help you get a fluffier look.Adding volume to your hair with your fingers will help it stand up.
Step 3: Pull hair away from each other.
If you want to go all the way down to the roots, you need to split your hair in half.It's a good idea to do this all over your hair.The splitting motion is similar to a 2- strand twist, but you aren't twisting the strands together.When you reach into your hair, jiggle your hand.This will help loosen the strands and give you a more natural look.It should be around 2 to 3 fingers thick.
Step 4: You can get a hair pick with rubber or metal teeth.
The length of your hair will affect how long your teeth are.The longer the teeth are, the longer they should be.It's important to choose something that is flexible.Your hair may be damaged if your teeth are too stiff.rubber is more gentle on the hair than metal.
Step 5: When you hit a knot, run the pick through your hair.
Start by touching the tips of your hair.The tips of the pick can be used to gently untangle a knot.After detangling all the ends, repeat the process.Slowly you will be able to separate your hair.If you run up against a challenging knot, add coconut oil to loosen it up.
Step 6: You should comb the pick through your hair.
Start at the bottom of your head and work your way up the sides.Pull the pick away from your head.Pull the pick at a downward angle when you're doing the bottom of your head.Pull it away from your head when you get to the sides and back.Pull the pick up towards the ceiling when you get to the top.To match the curve of your skull, adjust the angle at which you flick the comb.
Step 7: When you get the look you want, fluff your hair with the pick.
Pick out your hair from front to back.There are sections that look flat or clumped together.The amount of time you do this depends on your level of puffiness.You are ready to go once you are happy with your look.Your hair's natural texture will help maintain the style.
Step 8: Dry, clean hair is a good place to comb your hair.
Pick a hair product and apply it to your hair.Next, use a wide-toothed comb to comb your hair.This will help distribute the product as well as remove tangles.You can either use a store-bought one or a natural one.
Step 9: If you want, apply a styling cream to your hair.
If your hair doesn't hold styles well, the styling cream is necessary.If you have coarse hair, you can skip the styling cream.Don't soak your hair in water, use enough to make it damp.Use a wide-toothed comb if you have to.
Step 10: You can blow-dry your hair with a diffuser attachment.
There is a attachment on your hairdryer.Hold the hairdryer at a 90 angle as you turn it on.Put the prongs into your hair so that they don't touch your head.If you want it to dry your hair, hold it there for a few seconds, then move it onto another part of your head.Until your hair is dry, do this all over your head.If you press the prongs of the dryer against your hair, it could cause injury.You won't be able to dry a section of hair on the first pass, and you may have to revisit it a few times before it is dry.If you want your hair to be dry, just let it air dry.Don't use the hairdryer without the attachment.The heat will cause damage to your hair.It could also make it wet.The attachment looks a little like a funnel.
Step 11: Pull strands away from your head and blow-dry them with a nozzle.
The attachment for the diffuser should be replaced with a nozzle.Pull a section of hair away from your head.Blow-dry that section of hair, focusing on the roots.The angle at which you pull your hair depends on how you want it to stay up.You can either pull it up towards the ceiling or off to the side.A blast attachment is a concentrator nozzle.It is both wide and thin.The size of the hair doesn't matter.It would be fine if it was 2 to 3 fingers thick.
Step 12: You can use a pick to comb out hair.
You can choose a hair pick with metal or rubber prongs.The prong can be run through small sections of hair.Start by combing out the ends and then working your way back to the roots.Before moving on to the next section, use the tips of the comb to untangle knots.Don't try to remove all of your hair with the pick.You can use it to train your hair.
Step 13: You can shape your hair with your fingers.
You have a little freedom here.Pull strands of hair apart to get more volume.Pull on your hair in the direction you want it to stand.If you want to make your hair look glossy, you don't need to use a lot of spray.
