How to Grow Black Long Hair Fast and Easy

An afro is simply an extension of natural curly hair, with curly textured hair either naturally curly or chemically straightened with straightening products, or in any permutable kinky texture. The term "afro" is sometimes used interchangeably with Brazilian, Caribbean, Fento, Javanese, Hawaii, and other African-descriptive terms. Sometimes, a "kinky" afro may resemble that of the frizzy waves seen in the Caribbean. This is not to say that all people with naturally curly hair can not also grow a thick, gorgeous afro, only that there are some differences between curly haired people who grow an afro versus those who do not. One way to tell the difference between curly haired and straight haired people who grow an afro is to see if the latter grow their hair completely down the back of their neck. Curly haired people tend to have more of their hair in the front of their neck, whereas straight haired people will have more hair at the back of their neck.

For people who do not grow an afro, the best way to make an afro resembles the appearance of one's natural hair -- thick and luxurious. If you were born with naturally wavy hair, you can attempt to grow your hair out for added length and thickness. If your hair is curly however, an afro made to look like your own hair will not work for you. If you want to have the look of an afro but you are not naturally wavy or curly, try using curling irons on your hair -- the heat from the irons will actually straighten out your hair and help it grow long.

One way to make an afro resemble your own hair is to dye your hair in a dark color; once it has dried, you can comb and style your hair in the same dark color. You may also consider adding hair extensions; this will give the appearance of layers of hair that has been placed on your scalp, adding thickness and length. You may also choose to add a small amount of hair from another person, such as a hair piece or a fake out-of-body hair. Whatever you decide to do, the more hair you have to work with, the more your afro will resemble your real head of hair -- and the longer it will last!

For those of you with naturally curly hair, it is possible to make your own afro. Simply use any type of frizz-control product on your hair, then take a small section of hair and tease it so that only the roots are showing. You can add clips or rubber bands to hold the hair in place for a professional looking afro, or leave it loose and falling down.

If your hair is straight, but you would like it to look afro-like, you can consider using keratin products to straighten it out. Keratin helps hair to grow long and healthy. Simply apply the product to your hair and massage in. To get the best effect, do this once every two days. To prevent breakage, apply the product the night before you wash your hair.

For those of you who are naturally straight but would like your hair to look afro-like, try using keratin products. Again, apply them the night before you wash your hair, and leave them in your hair overnight. The next day, simply wash your hair and enjoy your new, longer, frizz-free hair! This is how to grow long black hair.
