40 Fantastic Fros

The Afro, a style made popular in the 60s and 70s, has made a comeback with the Natural Hair Movement. A movement that encourages and inspires black women to abandon relaxers and societal pressure to conform to Eurocentric ideals of beauty, and either keep or return to, their hair’s natural state.

Afros come in all shapes, sizes, and textures. Some are perfectly coifed, while others are left to reach wildly to the sky. Each one screaming, “I’m Black and I’m proud!” Join me as we celebrate these 40 fantastic afros!
