What do Jamaican people look like?

There’s no single Jamaican look…

Jamaica is one of the most ethnically mixed places in the Caribbean. So many people can look different from each other.

[Asker]

I only asked because people be saying that someone looks Jamaican and I think to myself how you know what Jamaican people look like.

[7Phoenix7]

Yea When people say that they’re usually going off stereotypes lol. You can’t actually tell just by looking at someone.

[Asker]

I thought it was silly myself that people would say somebody looks Jamaican lol.

[KostasKouvalis]

SOME you CAN, but maybe Jamaicans not so much

[jazzy34]

All shades.

[Asker]

They look like you too.

[KostasKouvalis]

Gimmie a second...

[Asker]

Look like regular black people to me you all are crazy. Like look up Jamaican origin they are literally African.

[KostasKouvalis]

Yeah, I was gonna say, they should look like West Africans, but many are mixed with Whites

[Asker]

Some of those people you sent just look black.

[KostasKouvalis]

They're Jamaicans though

[Asker]

I thought you didn’t like black people?

[KostasKouvalis]

I don't see how that's relavent to your question.

[Asker]

I don’t see what you would be posting black people if you don’t like them.

[KostasKouvalis]

EXACTLY.
But you asked a question about how Jamaicans look and I showed you. Has nothing to do with liking or not liking them

[Asker]

You’re weird but ok

[KostasKouvalis]

And YOU'RE not? 🤣

[Asker]

I don’t be commenting on questions about black people if I didn’t like them like you’re doing.

[KostasKouvalis]

There you go. So I don't not like them.
You're asking annonymous questions about how Jamaicans look, when you can literally google that. You're also saying they look like Africans, so why are you even asking? And why did you wait several replies to bring it up
Have a nice day

[Asker]

I asked because people always say goofy stuff like they can tell when someone is Jamaican.

[KostasKouvalis]

Well I'm being nice and giving you a good answer with visuals and even liked your question because I found it interesting, so I don't know why you would say that stuff. Have a nice day

[Asker]

Well I gave you the reason why I asked so I don’t see why that would be hard to comprehend if I’m saying it’s weird that people would say they can tell who is Jamaican if they look like any other black person.

Black people with natty hair/dreadlocks.

[Mike_Hum]

they're black/caribbean.

[Asker]

Are they dark or light or do they come in various skin colors I asked because I never understood how people can tell someone is Jamaican

[Mike_Hum]

just like all people they look different. A Jamaican will tend to have dreadlocks so maybe that's the key.

[Mariogirl09]

Not every Jamaican has locks.
The accent is very telling tho. You can't tell whose Jamaican unless they wear the red yellow and green colors all the time representing but even that doesn't tell someones jamican...

[Asker]

@Mariogirl09 I always thought they look like just another black person in my opinion.

[Mike_Hum]

@Mariogirl09 lol so exactly what I typed?

[Mariogirl09]

Not always i think they have deeper facial structure... wider noses... higher cheekbones

[Asker]

@Mariogirl09 they are African descent from Africa part of their ancestors moved to the Caribbean and they populated over time.

[Staximus]

[Iron_Man]
