Photos: Promoting African hairstyle

Another LIB reader shares a pic of her 'Okoso' hairstyle. I definitely want to promote and encourage these hairstyles, I just don't plan to try it. Lol. But kudos to all the ladies dumping the weaves and wigs and going natural.

It takes great courage and self confidence to pull this off. Most (And by most i mean 99.99%)of our black queens have low self esteem. This self loathing have got to stop. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!

This is cute . I'll definitely rock it.

Unknown said...

A tree is stronger because of its root. We do not go natural we return. Natural is where we began.

Anonymous said...

I rocked that style once and hated it. It's too far out and childlike, and not something you can wear long-term.

Anyway keep promoting #TeamNatural Linda, there are a huge variety of lovely styles to choose from.

becos everybody does it, doesn't mean it will fit you

Please, she resemble mbeke. All this talk of ladies being natural. Take a good look at the girls who get cars. Business class tickets, nice houses and we will all know that we are deceiving ourselves. Even if the girls that look natural get the husbands the pockets of the husband will be managed by artificial babe's since wifey is low maintenance. And wifey will not be the one to be presented at high profile gatherings

Don't worry better mgbeke will catch you soon. You go pay for Brazillian hair tire.

Hahaha! Exactly. Africans promote yourself and stop living in mental slavery. Natural hair can be easily managed and can grow very long.

Don't mind them. How can you expect people to accept you when you can't even accept yourself

You don't have to lead every time you post a natural hairstyle with how you'd never wear it. Brings out the morons who only believe in the creamy crack and horse hair.

The true beauty of a woman is natural, all those painting with different colours is to meet up - that's why is called make-up. Any woman that looks natural is still look beautiful is the real beautiful woman. Period if u like vex.

Weave or another human being hair, make-up is to add to yourself because you go too ugly without it. Natural face or hair is what brings out the true beauty of a woman.

It's beautiful on its own..
