Every time I see this picture I imagine these two are rappers who just released a 10/10 album with an underground 90's sound
>>9322567
don't know if they're related, but also this ones
Sam Lambert & Shaka Maidoh
will 2015 be the year of the bald-with-a-beard style?
>>9322658
That's all I got. Hope it helps someone.
Every thread you guys post exactly the same pics
>>9322930
there aren't enough options
>>9323004
There are so many options you're just too scared to try any new ones.
What can I use to blacken my hair?
>>9324004
hair dye
Thoughts? Would this look stupid if you're 21?
>>9322930
I see a lot of new pics in this thread though.
And it's also because the male black hair discussion isn't so big.
More short-ish inspo pls
>>9324574
looks stupid no matter your age
>>9324574
No. Enjoy your youth and vitality.

Why?
I want to get waves in my hair until it's long enough for twist outs.
What should I put in my scalp? I don't really do anything to it and I want to start styling it.
Like, what shampoos or oils or whatever should I get?
>>9324697
When you're growing your hair out, make sure your hair isn't dry, because that's how you get breakage. Moisturize with water+essential oils (people suggest coconut, olive, and jojoba oils), seal with a coating product.
>>9324720
What coating do you personally recommend?
I'm going shopping in half an hour or so.
>>9324726
Depends on you hair type. I have fairly coarse hair, so I use Mane and Tail as a leave-in, and shea butter. Of course make sure your shea is ethically sourced.
>>9322468
Bank$quiat has beautiful locks
>>9322660
How do I achieve this?

>>9322660
>>9325014
It's been my goal for quite some time now, bruh
texture is a bit different, but I like it [pic related].
use a good texturizer/let it grow out without touching the top/keep getting that high top fade/use some gel and oils to style it

who are those models tho?
How to deal with a fucked hairline? The barber pulled it back a fucking half inch, do i just let it grow or shave it down to be consistent?
>>9325243
>The barber pulled it back a fucking half inch,
How the fuck does this even happen? Eh, I wouldn't touch it if I were you, but I'm no expert.
>>9325243
>The barber pulled it back a fucking half inch
>>9325291
don't laugh
i-it's not funny ;_;
>>9325258
my usual barber's nephew was cutting it

jesus christ.
If there's no regulars don't let anyone cut your hair.
>>9325335
>my usual barber's nephew was cutting it
ayyyyy
>tfw hair grew about 3 inches in the last year
I mean i did trim the back, but the struggle is real
how did he get his hair like this
I usually have twists, the problem they don't move enough when I move my head for my tastes, unless my hair are wet, is there anything I could to keep the inertia that water adds to my hair throughout the day? For example what COLORLESS conditioner/moisturizer could I use?
>>9325944
with perm and dye. basic shit. If you want any chance of being taken seriously you should not do either.
>>9325973
If you want movement, you ca try making them thinner.
>>9322482
She was a qt, shame she aged poorly. She's married to Drago from game of thrones which is fucking weird, I thought that dude was like 30.
>>9326146
They are thin, but pretty short, they just need to be wet with some gel or something to move. But gel isn't a solution as I can not leave it in, unless there are gel that can be leaved in?
>>9326182
Drago or Drogo?
I have really thick hair, what do?

I locked myself into having dreads when I was 15 or so, not sure if I made the right choice or not. I definitely like them but there aren't many styles I can do with them that don't accentuate my already protruded forehead...
Some texturized hair inspooo

>>9322664
das it mayne
>>9329264
This is why I'm afraid of getting dreads, it's a big thing to take them out. With twists you can take them out as you please.
>>9329351
what exactly are twists?
>>9329520

>>9326824
sorry for the late reply
>>9330060
I'm well aware my hair is shit ;_;
>>9323072
>no offer
>>9324574
There's potential with this
Any ideas on what to do with my hair? I'm sick of the same, "get a buzz cut or fade like every other nigga on the block" deal. I decided to let my hair grow but as of right now im not sure what to do as of styling it. I've tryed making it curly like in >>9322523
but I barely know shit when it comes to my type of hair.
>>9326187
try something like shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie, it's a styling cream for twist outs and braid outs
if you really are against that for some reason, try eco-styler gel
>>9329520
almost like a 2-strand braid
>>9330595
get a trim because your ends look pretty rough, start using a leave in conditioner, cut out shampoo, and sleep with a doo-rag on or something similar
>tfw mixed w/ wavy straight hair
>tfw can never go basquiat
>>9331382
>tfw have the exact same problem and exact same goal
>>9322567
But the guy on the left isnt wearing socks
>>9331294
You can tell shit about his ends from that picture, mate.
>>9331354
bruh it looks fucking gay.. no real nigga would want to look like that. I've seen retarded white/indian people thinking it's edgy, you're all destroying a culture by making it a bandwagon. How embarrassing please stop.
>>9332884
>every nigga should have ye ye ass haircut like me
>>9332900
I don't mind seeing a few people having a Chonmage but once every nigga on the block is riding the same kinda dick that's when I draw the line.
>>9331354
>tfw forehead is a mix between dude on the right's and Rihanna's
>tfw no hair style can hide it properly
>>9322507
How to get this PLEASE
>>9331354
i actually think the left looks pretty cool
Styling is one thing but every style will look like shit if your hair isn't MOISTURIZED. So how do you guys do it? My hairs about 5 inches long right now and I still haven't been able to get the moisturizing part down. Plus frizz is also a bitch.
I'm not a big fan of globbing a bunch of heavy product into my hair daily, as that tends to cause my face to breakout.

Use a spray bottle with 3 parts water and 1 part whatever oil of your choice, and also use a leave in conditioner. I reccomend, Avlon's KeraCare Hair Milk. It's light and also works as a detangler.
is there anything to be gained by simply not combing? I've gone a couple weeks without picking out, just to add a bit of texture, but I'm not really sure where I'm going with it.
>>9334501
alot is gained by simply not combing infact i recommend not combing to anyone looking to grow their hair out. it is the only way you actually will find out how your hair grows and the texture that is unique to you once you know you can choose the direction that is best for you via styling
>>9334501
Enjoy your natty dreads.
>>9334516
You can pick your hair and have your hair grow, man. Don't spread misinformation.
>>9322468
I've noticed the last couple of threads were getting deleted by mods....shit was weird.
>>9322664
>>9330595
read the infograph in the OP, and then come back when you have more questions.
>>9332851
yes i can? my hair gets the same way when my ends are starting to go, it's a pretty potato picture but they don't look the best
Why do black people always get their hairlines outlined with those sharp edges? It always looked goofy to me.
>>9334842
it's so you don't get little wispy baby hairs on the edges, just makes it look cleaner
if I have pretty fucking curly jew hair is it possible to use product or something that will make my hair as springy and tight as black hair?
