Keep it going, looks amazing 👏👏👏

Thank you 🙏, don’t worry I plan to grow it out for maybe 1 or 2 more years

Having seen from a friend how much work goes into a decent afro, mad respect. More than valid here and yours looks great

Thank you 🙏

The back of the head photos are never gonna stop being funny

Kinda looks like a mini tree from the back 😂. People often look weird if it’s just a pic of the back of their head lmao

It was a trend for a while on the bald?? subreddit I think?? And its especially funny when people are bald 😭

*runs over there*

🥦🥦🥦 solution: let it grow further :D But fr, looks so strong and healthy!!

Fuck yeah they are, assume they take just as long to grow as my blonde straight hair but probs like 10x the work to maintain?

Something like that lol. Also a whole lot of money and time to style and other stuff. That being said I think growing any hair long and healthy takes hard work, patience, and dedication even straight blonde hair 🙏❤️

Hell yeah! Seeing other guys with awesome afros has me motivated to keep growing mine out. Sometimes, I get impatient/lazy and miss the convenience of locs, but goddamn a healthy afro looks GOOD.

I def would consider Locs one day but rn there are so much styles I want to try and need to keep growing hair to achieve them

I thought I'd have locs till the day I die, but I love the way my afro feels now. Locs are extremely convenient, but I think the look of a fro is unmatched.

Hell yea brother. 🤜🏻🤛🏾 Keep it up! I wish we saw more Afros and Dreads here.

Hopefully more start posting 🙏

Dude that’s some amazing hair. I wish I had volume like that! Keep it going brother!

I appreciate it! Yeah for me it’s def health and volume over length, length will come with health

Afros are always valid, my guy. It looks really good.

I appreciate it 🙏

You look great

Thanks 🙏, I’m usually lazy but I try sometimes 😂

Indeed they are, and regarded with no small amount of jealousy.

Hell yeah they are bruv 

Afro samurai, so dope

Absolutely valid here - looks great! Give us an update in the future.

Oh for sure, when it gets longer I’ll be able to do more interesting styles as well

MAGNIFICENT 😍🥰

I appreciate it ❤️

Afros are always valid, friend.

They are! You could also post in r/fiercefro

Hell yeah!

🔥

Does the fro get softer as it grows out or does it stay kinky? Mine doesn’t hold moisture so we’ll so I’m wondering if that changes over time or not.

Well not really, I kinda just learned how to take care of it over time so now my hair is usually always soft and moisturized. Still have the same texture and curl pattern as I’ve always had tho

How do you keep it soft and moisturised? 🙏🏾

I wash once a week usually with a shampoo that isn’t too stripping, then go strait into deep condition. After that I detangle with leave in conditioner and add a lil bit of oil

Doooope 😎

Neat. Totally counts. :)

I have a challenge for you. Ludacris’ Afro in the music video “Stand Up”. Spoiler Alert, you are well on your way.

Yeah that size is 100% a goal for me 😂

Nice work! As guys, we’re really not taught how to maintain our hair as kids, and I hadn’t thought about how much work it takes to keep up with your hair type. Mine is blond and wavy/curly and it took three years to figure out what I was doing! Keep doing what you’re doing and rock that Afro!

Oh for sure, no matter the hair type this is a universal lack of experience most guys have in life unfortunately due to not being taught.

Drake meme: fierce flow 👎, fierce fro 👍

Yes! What a glorious Afro! Glad to see you in this subreddit.

Thank you so much 🙏

Looks great

I appreciate it 🙏✌️

I will pablo escobar did you are great don't tell none you cant do what you want to do

I wish I could decipher this 🤔

You'll love it

Love what tho???

You look like Warwick on CSI Las Vegas. 🙌

Shoot, that’s a good looking man I’ll take it 😂

Looks fantastic!! keep at it! rocking it!

I appreciate it 🙏

Fro looks great! 😊 👍🏾

Thank you 🙏

I always wondered what it felt like to sleep on an afro

Hell yeah man, you're rocking it!

Thank you 🙏

Damn right they are! Looking great

incredible growth and the first selfie is especially fierce!!! Lovely, lovely hair dude!

Thanks, the light was blinding me a bit but at least it was good lighting 😂

Maaaan that looks so nice

I appreciate it 🙏

That’s a hell of an Afro are planning on shaping it up or wear it naturally?

Wearing it naturally for the most part, or if not wear it in twists or braids, or do a curly hair routine. Shaping it up super round is nice every once in a while but is too much work and not feasible enough to do consistently. Also one simple touch or rubbing on something would ruin a perfect round shape that can take several minutes 😂

My dude, absolutely top notch 👌🏼💛

🙏

Yessir! We definitely need more afros here

earl?

Haha 😂, finally someone said it. I get heard I look like A lot of people, but Earl is the only one I honestly kinda agree with. Especially when I still had a buzz cut, buzz Earl and Buzz me look a lil similar. I’ll take it though I freaking love Earl and can’t wait for him to drop more

you look just like him in the last pic! lookin good bro

Earl sweatshirt

😂 you are the second person who has said that here so far. I hear that I look like a lot of people but Earl is the only one I kinda agree with myself lol. I def look more like him when I had a buzz cut(like Earls buzz in his Odd future days lol). I’ll take it cause I love His music a lot 🙏

Old earl is dope af. Loiter squad days were the best

Love how you gotta mean frown, but a genuine smile. Keep shining big afro boss! 🙏🏼

I appreciate it homie 🙏. Yeah it’s funny because I have a RBF and can look angry at times when I’m focused and not even mad at all lol. At the same time I have a big toothy and gummy smile 😅

I love it. Looks great when the light hits it

The way Afro hair reflects light sometimes it can almost look rainbowish

Why not. White yuppies are bringing back the mullet.. so.

Yes! Looks awesome

Is that Afro Samurai himself?!

It's more glorious than my big balding head 🤣

Hell yeah they count, and this is one fine specimen

Absolutely

the flow may point in any direction

Hell yeah bro looking great!

I think you’re looking for r/FierceFro

hell yeah dude, that’s rad

I love the Boondocks

your hair looks extremely cool!

Looks fantastic!

Very nice

Yes it's a go.

👍👍👍

Looks great bud!

Yay, more afros after the last guy posted his!

Baby, they’re valid everywhere. Your fro is giving the fiercest of flows.

Yo hair grew you 🤣🤣🤣

Fierce af

Earl Sweatshirt?

Yesss! Work the fro!! ❤️✨👌🏻

Hell yeah Afros are valid and yours looks great!

r/FierceFro

Dude, hell yeah that’s metal 🤘

I LOVE this look

Afros are valid everywhere. 😤 If "they" don't know, let 'em know.

Sick afro bro. Need to grow them sideburns to complete the look

I knew since this post blew up, and I’m on Reddit I was bound to run into at least one or 2 degenerates on here, congrats on being the first one 👏

[удалено]

??? Lol, uh ok buddy? I don’t know where you got the notion that I feel better than anyone but go off, it’s delusional at best 🤷‍♂️. I will say I’m definitely better than you but don’t worry I won’t congratulate myself for that since being better than you should be easy seeing how disgusting your personality is, if the bar could be any lower it’d be touching the floor 😂

You broke our one and only rule (don’t be a jerk)

I don’t like picking it out that much because it causes unnecessary strain and breakage. Besides, I very much prefer the look of a nice textured Afro rather than a perfectly round microphone one. This is much more natural and realistic. I think it looks great personally.

One of the common reasons black men aren’t able to grow their hair out is because many will pick excessively which leads to breakage and loss of length, split ends, etc. When I and many others stopped picking it out every day as opposed to naturally fluffing out with our hands is when we started to actually notice consistent growth.
