Afro-textured hair can take a long time to grow, so many Black women and young girls choose to have a weave fitted. However, there are plenty of amazing short natural haircuts and hairstyles for Black women. Rather than damaging your hair and your scalp with harsh chemicals or tight weaves, learn to love your natural hair.
Natural afro hair is normally curly, kinky or wavy, and can take a little more taming than other hair types. Nonetheless, afro-textured hair looks amazing and many of today’s popular styles have a proud heritage behind them.
Tips for Choosing a Short Natural Hairstyle
- Remember that no matter which short natural hairstyle you choose, the typical length of time it will last is six weeks
- Choose a hairstyle you will be comfortable maintaining. Don’t want to spend more than 15 minutes styling each morning? Keep that in mind!
- Keep your face shape in mind when looking at hairstyles: for heart-shaped faces, add layers; oval and round faces can both pull off braided short styles beautifully, etc.
- The more detailed the hairstyle is that you choose, the longer you’ll spend having it styled in the salon
- Short natural hairstyles look their best when styled with the best products. Use leave-in conditioners and moisture-rich hair oils to smooth frizz and add shine.
- If you like both texture but an easily controlled style, there are looks that combine both natural hair’s waves with microbraids
- If your job requires a certain professionalism, choose a hairstyle that is reflective of that (ex. no crazy hair colors)
- Some short natural hairstyles have a ton of volume, while others such as braids, do not. If you wear your curls naturally, it will be easy to embrace texture. For low maintenance minus texture, braids are the best choice.
