Information About Wet-Styling Natural Black Hair

Are you looking for an easy way to style natural black and african american hair? Look at the picture on the left. The woman in the photo has natural afro textured hair which she has styled in a unique way. What she has done is used some Northwest Scents hair conditioner after washing her hair to produce waves in her hair. To accomplish this, while her hair was still damp after washing, she combed Northwest Scents hair conditioner through her hair, squeezed out the excess, styled her hair the way she wanted it, and then tied a scarf over her hair for about 30 minutes. At the end of this process she has waves. In this case, the lady in the photo has bangs, and the rest of the hair she combed into a roll which she secured with bobby pins and hair combs.

In this photo, the lady has worked with her natural afro textured hair in a similar way to the lady in the photo above. She styles it by pulling her hair back loosely and secures the ends with a braid which she tucks under. She then wears a fabric headband around the front of her hair.

This wet-styling technique lends itself to many different possibilities. Natural afro textured hair, if it is healthy and in good condition, can by styled using conditioners, water, a comb, and a scarf to set the hair in place. The hair can be short, medium length, or long. The length of the hair determines the styling possibilities.
