Girls, What kind of hairstyle to you prefer on a black guy?

[Anonymous]

I've tried many different styles over the years, but now that I'm in my mid 20s, I feel like I should find a style and stick with it. I tend to like having more hair than usual.

I'm really open to anything though. I've tried very short styles, afros, relaxed, hawks, and even straightened rock style (teens). Now I have more hair on top and some on the side. But I think I can do something more interesting.

So yeah, what kind of hairstyle do you actually like on a black guy?

[mae_kookie]

short.
a huge ass afro is a no. Im not even being racist I'm black myself lmao.
but a short afro or a short afro straight cut thing is good.
it also depends on your hair texture. Not all black guys and even girls have the same hair texture but yea

short like this or maybe shorter is okay too

[mae_kookie]

big afros like this is a no for me www.curlyhairstylesformen.net/.../...urly-hair.jpg

[xXiTacoXx]

I think ol' boy with the big afro looks cute, but the fade also look nice too.

[mae_kookie]

@xXiTacoXx it does look good on some guys
but the ones in my school.. it just don't suit them.

[xXiTacoXx]

It might depend on their face shapes. Maybe that's it.

[stillagoodgirl]

Oooh he hella cute

[Asker]

Thanks to the terminology you used (short afro straight cut), I was able to look up more related options and I narrowed down the style I want! I also really like the photo you attached.

Here's what I'd like to go for, let me know what you think:

Although i like black guys iv never been a fan of their hair. I don't know if its racist but i find cornrolls and afros too thuggish and messy. If i had to say, i prefer bald / a number 1 buzz cut. I do like big Afros although, but they have to be clean looking and well shaped.

[xXiTacoXx]

It's actually quite racist. Afro's aren't messy or thuggish. There's way more care put into maintain afro's than most other hair styles/textures. Calling it messy and thuggish is an insult.

[EmoKate97]

@xXiTacoXx I'm sorry you're offend, but afros are objectively messy. You have to at least acknowledge that.

[xXiTacoXx]

Poofy*, and the word thuggish was unnecessary. You could've just said you don't like the way that afro's looked at left it at that, but then you had to add in the word thuggish which is where you messed up. There's nothing messy about an afro unless a person isn't taking care of it or has lice in there or some shit. But since most naturals take care of their hair the hair they have is never messy.

[EmoKate97]

@xXiTacoXx Then i'm wrong for saying that, but that's just how i feel. I can't help it.

But you're being very emotional, so much so that you're ignoring that i find big afros attractive, and i like them because they're wild and out there. That's just how i see it, i'm sorry you feel that way, schools don't allow people to wear their hats backwords or flannels with 1 button because cholos do that. And afros are messy, they're puffed. And you seem to have the standard that most people with afros take care of their hair, which isn't true for most people in general. Afros are mostly the result of not doing anything with your hair, so mathematically it makes more sense for someone with an afro to have an afro as a result of being lazy with their hair, just like people in the military having buzz cuts as a result of being quick and easy instead of happening to actually like buzz cuts.

[xXiTacoXx]

Not taking care of your hair doesn't lead to an afro it leads to a persons hair falling out. Anyone with natural hair like myself will tell you this. Afro's are actually high maintenance which is one of the many reasons quite a few black people choose not to go natural. You can look up natural hair on YouTube and they'll let you know it goes take work and time to grow an afro, and that not taking proper care of it can lead to hair loss.

[EmoKate97]

@xXiTacoXx Ok I don't take care of my hair weeks sometimes and my hair doesn't fall out lol. Well i can accept that maybe my hair is more sturdy but i know some people have hair that falls off easily.

[xXiTacoXx]

That may work for you, but natural black hair is a whole different situation. If it's not in a protective style, or isn't kept up and you just leave it alone out as it is, then there can be major damage done to it. The only way we can do almost nothing (I say almost nothing is because we still have to moisturize the scalp and edges, wash it, and wrap it up at night) to our hair and leave our hair alone without it falling out is if it's in a protective style like braids, twists, under a weave, or under a wig. Other than that we have to go the extra mile to take proper care of it. Taking care of an afro is work, but it's worth it in the long run.

[zellyanna]

cornrolls XD
dead.

[goddess87]

she said she likes black dudes. it's not racist what she said so stop twisting it. if anything she is stereotyping. There's got to be a lot more to your life than making everything a race issue

[xXiTacoXx]

@goddess87 Just because someone likes another racist doesn't mean they can't say something out of pocket/racist. What she says was racist. Stop being mad about someone having the balls to point it out instead of coddling said racist comment like you are.

[xXiTacoXx]

another race* My phone fucked up with that autocorrect.

[Asker]

She's not racist. She just doesn't know.

[xXiTacoXx]

I said that what she said was racist and out of pocket. I never said she herself was a complete racist. Again, anyone can say something racist even though they may like other races.

[goddess87]

taco you have sympathy here. it must be awful to be that angry inside on a daily basis.

[xXiTacoXx]

@goddess87 No one's angry. Just because I pointed out that what she said was wrong doesn't make me angry, it just mean's I'm not caping for someone's offensive comments like you're doing now. It must be awful to be so lacking in reading comprehension skills on a daily basis.

[lna9715]

thicker on top

[DollySummers]

The oldies peplum hairstyle. Will I call it peplum. low fade, pompadour, and quiff. But not the disconnected ones. Plus with mustache, mutton chops, and a beard.

[xXiTacoXx]

Peplum hairstyle?

[DollySummers]

Yes. It is an old hairstyle. From victorian plus era. It was popular for a long time. Now is again.

[xXiTacoXx]

o. o Can you post a picture as an example?

[DollySummers]

[PunkinPie]

Dreads. Totally. And like pull them up into a man bun sometimes.

[PunkinPie]

I'm not kidding either, fyi. I'm serious.

[Aalila]

short but enough to grab and pull while having rough passionate sex

[stillagoodgirl]

Short hair with 360° waves, or super short (buzz)
OR long hair like Slash, Lenny Kravtiz

I also love the faded hairstyle with the sides shaved

[PrincessBunBuns]

Keep yourself natural! Cute.
