How do you get nappy hair like this?Pic Included?
It's very rare for a black person to have naturally straight hair. And I doubt you do. Shave all your hair off, and don't blow dry it, it'll probably grow in kinky, like Ushers in the picture. There are many types of kinky hair so it can be tighter or looser than his. If your hair really is naturally straight, beeswax will not do that... nothing will as naturally straight hair is the hardest to manipulate into curls, especially tight little curls/coils like that. You can try to get a perm as well (a perm makes your hair curly. It is a relaxer that makes your hair straight). But it will be very hard to get a perm to get that size curl, because in order for a perm to work you need to use rollers to keep the shape.
How can I twist mixed, curly hair? (Male)?
I am black and white, and my hair has more black features than white features. I would still consider my hair curly though. I would like to twist my hair so I could make it look like Odell Beckham Jr., but I don't know how. Are there any tips on how twist hair that is more curly, than nappy? Or how to get hair like Odell Beckham Jr.? any help is appreciated;)
How do i make my hair rough an nappy?
I quit reading these answers because they bothered me so much, here: Do not put honey in your hair, that's gross. Do not put wax in your hair, that's gross. PLEASE wash your hair, it's gross not to. Now all that being said, I've seen tons of asian girls (you know, super silky / smooth / fine hair) with dreads. So any hair type can dread. Be very careful when looking into Knottyboy, they are a business, so their main goal is to sell their product. They push all sorts of crazy products on you and dreads REALLY don't need any products at all. Here's some info on wax and dreadlocks in case you're interested: http://www.dreadlocktruth.com/whynotwax.... Anyways, here's the advice I normally give on starting dreadlocks: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

How do I make my hair thicker/nappy for dreadlocks?
Ok, this may sound weird, but as far as I know, I'm completely African-American but my hair is really straight naturally. About 8 months ago, I put my hair into tiny braids to start my locs, and from the very beginning they were really straight but I wasnt worried; I figured they would start acting Black after a while. Now, months later, my hair still looks like braids-old braids with a perm in my hair. The ones in the back of my head are starting to lock up, but its really frustrating me that on 'regular' African-American hair, the braids would have locked up by now. Any ideas on how I can make my hair thicker and/or nappier to get my hair on the right track?? Serious comments please!!! Anyone anti-dreadlock please dont bother putting up a comment!!!! Thanks
How can I make my nappy hair straight silk without gettting a perm/relaxer?
Alright, firstly, make sure that you are using the right types of shampooing product for your hair. You could try using a product like Sunsilk (Local drugstores). Make sure that you are using the same type of shampoo AND conditioner if at all possible. If you can afford it, you shuld try buying a deep conditioner. You could also try and use a hot oil treatment. They are very safe for your hair and they work very well. If you buy the Vo5, you are getting a good deal and a great working product. The instructions are on the box, so follow them carefully. Next, you could even try drying your hair on a lower heat setting. Too much heat can cause the most damage to your hair. Make sure that when drying your hair, you hold the dryer about 8 inches away from your head if possible. You could try using a round barrel brush on your hair while drying it as well. Do this by taking a small section of your hair and placing the brush against where your hair meets your scalp and running the blowdryer along the other side of your brush (so that your hair is between the blowdryer and your brush). Lastly, if you are willing to spend a lot of money, a new Paul Mitchell straightener is the best way to go if you want your hair to be pretty much perfectly straight. It is very costly. If you know anyone who has access to a salon store (ie. your hairdresser) who could maybe get the straightener for you at a discount price, try that first. This specific straightener is usually $150, but I got mine for about $90 since my mom is friends with a hair stylist running her own business. If the Paul Mitchell straightener is too expensive for your taste, you could also try using a line of shampoos/creams/sprays for your hair called Matrix. It is the Sleek version of the shampoos in an orange bottle. This line of hair products is starting to be available in most stores, but it can be found at hair salons who sale hair care products. You will need to invest in the shampoo, conditioner, smoothing creme, and straightening spray. The instructions on how to use all of these are also on the bottles. When using any kind of straightening spray, hold the bottle upright away from your sectioned piece of hair about 4 inches and spray a light mist. Set the bottle down and straighten the section of the hair from root to tip. I HOPE SOME OF THIS HELPS! IT'S JUST A BUNCH OF RANDOM INFORMATION AND HAIRCARE PRODUCTS THAT I HAVE USED! :]

How do I get my hair like Childish Gambino?
Basically I have been growing my hair for a lil bit now, and i have a decent fro. I want to have a hair style similar to Childish Gambino, but i am not sure what he is doing with his hair. I can't tell if he has twists, if he has some sort of dreads, or just really nappy hair. If anyone could give me some sort of direction to go in with my hair that would be awesome
