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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  25. 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.

  46. 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

  57. 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.
