We have a large choice apart from wearing your hair natural. Why not have it cut short then either permed then curled with tongs or natural and shaped at the edges or you can go for a weaved style. Best to go to a good hairdresser to see you and suggest a style that would suit your face.

if your hair is curly u can still get this hair style, my hair is really curly and thick my friend is the same nationality as you and we have the same style not sure if you like it but i get alot of compliments.. i was way overdue for a hairstyle.



mine is like the spice girl and rhiannas. just take a pic with you and go to the right salon. or if u dont care for my style go to a real salon and take pics and they can tell u what is right for u face and hair type. but even if u hair is curly u can straighten it and it stays straight for a while good lucké–ł?br>What hairstyles can you do with afro-Caribbean hair??



keep it as it is it keeps your head warm. do you know why Afro Caribbean hair evolved ? in Africa the temperature drops at night are massive. the Afro hair helps you to retain more heat so the brain can operate at its most officiant temperature.

If you want to wear straight hair every once in a while these tips can help, but i am mostly writing this advice to share my knowledge about growing strong hair.Currently i have long hair and have been learning alot so...i do not have a relaxer i stopped getting them 5 years ago ( and i've only have 3 relaxers in my life time so this is all natural) so i can show you how to take care of hair without a relaxer.



1. The shampoo, unfortunately many black women are using shampoos with alcohol and petroleum jelly. step away from them. Use Aveda's shampoo.. specifically the name is Brilliant...go to the website. I use it, i love it, it mouisterizes my hair and the products are natural. i have also heard that KeraCare is great for relaxered hair.



2. Okay, step two condition it and then it is time to comb it out, Do not use a brush on you hair when it is wet,,it will hate you for it then break off in revenge. Put your your sections use a big tooth comb, to untangle it



3. Do a hot oil treatment atleast once a month with extra virgin olive oil...repeat..EXTRA VIRGIN olive oil..not the regular stuff. unfortunately i have yet to take this step however my hair is doing great. You will also need protein and deep conditioning treatments alteast once a month.



4. Okay on the daily basis you need to pay close attention to your hair...i recommend conditioning your scalp(3-4 times a week) and your ends(everyday) so that they will not get dry and unhealthy Petroleum jellly and mineral oil are weapons of mass destruction ( in other words do not use grease) it does so much harm to your hair it cannot be all explained here. So you ask what do I use...well natural oils grapeseed oil ( use it for hair it deflects heat so it is good for flat iron users like us)



jojoba oil(i use this for my scalp), extra virgin olive oil, sesame oil, emu oil, coconut oil...all these natural oils and more love you..i promise.I also use Aveda's Brilliant ( the name of the brand) emollient for my ends.



5. Next..if you want your hair straight but still be natural it is time to get a freakin good flat iron.,i have the Chi( However Chi flat irons do not work in the UK)..it does the job but I recommend getting the Sedu because of the good reviews. make sure to protect your hair..i have so thermal protector from Aveda. When flat ironing your hair do not let the iron stay on your hair for too long, just 1-2 quick swipes.I strongly advise against flat ironing hair with relaxers.



6. If you have a relaxer ( i have heard and seen that Affirm is the best relaxer) don't continue to relaxer all your hair everytime you go to the salon..just the new growth and try to stretch relaxers as long as possible. Rollersets under hooded dryers, with the lowest setting at possible temperature is recommended.



7. You do not need to trim your hair everytime you go to the salon maybe every 3 to 6 months.



8. Wrap your hair in a satin or silk scarf to prevent damage before you go to bed.



9. Eat healthy, drink lots of water,



10 take multivitamins, and fish oil pills you can get from GNC.



Follow these basics steps, can manuver them according to your needs ( like some don't do oil or or protein treatments, so oil everyday while others once s week, so people wash their hair once a week while others once every two weeks , but you have to the basics.)
