Black people can be very expressive when it comes to hairstyle. Ranging from the classic Afro, to locs and even natural kinks which have become more mainstream over the years.
Slicked Back Bob
Slicked back haircuts can instantly transform your look from plain and sophisticated to seductive and seductive in an instant. Perfect for both bobs and long locks, the style works equally well when using gel, wax or mousse to style. If you want more volume you could tuck loose strands behind the ears or add some bobby pins.
For a stylish yet effortless look that requires minimal upkeep and looks great with any ensemble, consider opting for a slicked-back pixie cut or short hair length bob with fades for added edge and depth. This look requires minimal care and maintenance but still looks chic with virtually every outfit you wear – you could even add fades for even greater edge.
Slicked back bobs are an ideal way to express yourself and can pair well with any facial hairstyle. Just remember that curly locks may become unruly with this styling method – instead try opting for neat ponytail or low bun for curlier locks to avoid this issue.
Faux Hawk
Men who don’t want to go all-out punk will appreciate the faux hawk haircut as an alternative style that remains stylish. This hairstyle features fades on both sides and back with longer sections on top that can be spiked or shaved off for an untidy, messy appearance. If your locks are thick enough, sideburns and beards may also complete this look for maximum impact!
Taper fade haircuts are the go-to for creating faux hawk styles, but for something different you could also opt for burst or skin fades. Long hair can benefit from having braids added for an edgier and elegant look that works especially well with oval face shapes; use gel or pomade for added shine, beard stubble can add some rugged charm – this style works well both casually or semiformal events!
Wild Ringlets
With this beautiful hairstyle, a cascade of beautiful curls cascade down your back and shoulders in a breathtaking display of texture and movement. Wear your natural teeny weeny afro or style it back in a faux hawk for maximum impact – this low maintenance style will have everyone envying your low maintenance styling skills!
To achieve it, trim short areas around your face and ears before letting the curls cascade like water down your shoulders like waterfall.

Short Haircuts

A taper fade is an effective way to retain the length and intensity of your natural curls while also creating an attention-grabbing short hairstyle that works beautifully for black women. To maintain healthy and manageable locks, schedule regular salon appointments for trims and hydration treatments.
