How Do You Make Straight Hair Into Afro Hair?
If you want that full, wavy look, you need to sleep in braids overnight (See Steps 1-4). If you want a thicker, bigger look, you will need additional styling tools and should follow the entire set of steps. • Grow your hair out. • Start with wet hair if possible. Comb hair up and outward so it gets body. • Braid your hair into six or eight sections. • Sleep in the braids overnight to get the best look. • Unbraid your hair when you get up in the morning. Bend over and tousle your hair with your fingers. • Divide each of the six or eight sections into four individual sections with a rat-toothed comb. Do this one section at a time. With each of the four “mini” sections, backcomb(tease) your hair gently until you achieve your desired Afro, or at least wavy hair.
