How to Get the Perfect Afro!

[@n.eliana3933]

You hair looks so soft

[@junecianzau6298]

I'm lucky to be black

[@mxchanzi]

I second that

[@ericaleshai]

Agreed :)

[@DarkAries76]

Right, lol.

[@Jevezy]

You mean you are lucky to be black and have the 4A texture that she has.

[@emmajackson1028]

Why I'm white and I can still grow a fro

[@probablylexa4966]

Finally, a woman with my hair type giving me an easy to follow tutorial on how to wear and style my hair. I’ve been trying different things with my hair but a fro seems more natural to me than anything.

[@lemonyjazmin645]

[@Faithspective]

Your method of caring for your hair is the old fashioned way, and I have to say I love it! To think....I was getting so swept up in the natural hair means defined curls phenomenon, that I forgot the basics. Thanks for showing me. I think I'm going to have fun with this.

[@ericaleshai]

Thank you! I just do what my parents told me they did to get their hair in a fro. Works like a charm ;)

[@carlajamelle7686]

Thanks for posting. I normally do bantu knots for a fro but was looking for a different method that was less time consuming. Came across your video and decided to give it a go. Definetly made my fro nice, full and actually more moisturized. Will be doing this method from here on out. Thanks again👍

Face,hair, woman ur just beautiful‼️💕

[@margaretfreeman1398]

Fabulous looks beautiful, want to try my hair is a b2 b3 hope I can achieve the same look love it

[@ericaleshai]

Thank you! Small perm rods (instead of the knots that I do) may help to achieve a curlier texture, while keeping your hair braided for a longer period of time. I hope it works out for you!

[@mimibon7081]

Afro on fleek!!..you're rockin' those glasses too...What lipstick colour and brand are you wearing...

[@ericaleshai]

mimi bon thanks love! And I think it was MAC Red paired with Black eye liner

[@YolieW]

Love love love this video. I am trying to grow my Afro I have always two strand twisted it I am going to try the braids. Thanks for the tip.

[@ericaleshai]

Thanks for watching love!

[@sarahsmith1418]

This would never work with my hair type but I am living for this style rn. You wear it gorgeously! :)

[@ericaleshai]

Sarah Smith thanks so much! Have you ever tried to do an Afro style?

[@georgiascott4806]

Thank you for this method. I love natural hair.

[@MissTownsend54]

You are gorgeous, girl! I grew up with mostly the white side of my family and so doing my hair is not something I'm particularly good at (being as I never had someone who knew black hair to teach me) but you girl, SLAY with that afro!

[@ericaleshai]

Dajah Townsend thanks love! I appreciate the compliment 😊

[@NicoleMcLean]

This was an awesome tutorial. Thank you so much! Your fro is EPIC.

[@ericaleshai]

+Nicole McLean Thank you!!!

[@sulev111]

I'm a get myself an afro! Hypnotizing to watch.

[@blackmermaid1]

I’m so jealous. I wish I had your size Afro. I just need mine to grow a little more. Right now I’m doing a protective style....box braids

[@glamglam8347]

its looks so good. im trying to get a good afro but gotta detangle first lmao

[@amanelisa1705]

Thank you so much for the tips about the straighter parts of your hair! The hair at the top of my head always ends up straighter than the rest of my hair so I get discouraged about wearing and afro

[@ericaleshai]

No problem! That's the biggest issue, getting the top to stand up, but nothing a little water won't fix 😊

[@IconicCutz]

love this! thank you for the tutorial!

[@tonjalatham4492]

Great video! You explained the process very well!

[@wesleydelcroix7757]

Hello there Erica! I just want to say that your videos are very enjoyable based upon how easy and simple it is. I am ah black male, and I've been growing out my hair for 3 years now. Not too long ago, I got cornrows, then taking them out a week later, I picked my hair out and I had a big fluffy fro. Eventually I had to wash it & then I ended up suffering from ultimate shrinkage and ended up infuriated lol. So, I found out that it is impossible to get it as fluffy as it once was even by blow drying it, if don't braid my hair. So do you have any simple hair braiding tutorials? If not could you please make one? If I could learn how to braid my hair then my life would be so much more easier. Thank You.

[@user-ov4wu7dw5i]

Do you have a sister? Your sister, mom, or any female in your like could teach you easily. It's so easy to do. Don't worry. Good luck!

[@ericaleshai]

I could do a simple hair braiding tutorial, no problem. I'll post it soon

[@wesleydelcroix7757]

+ericaleshai Thank You very much that would be much appreciated !

[@MickieMunster]

You look beautiful and powerful.

[@ericaleshai]

Wow thank you!

[@falanajerido6939]

Amen

[@jazminerichardson3292]

love it so pretty

[@oneandonlynitarosedale7582]

I'm trying to get afro, I started mines last night. My reasons why I want this is, I want to try something different and I don't want heat in my hair, I'm trying to grow my hair out. I was influenced by a girl I came across on instagram who rock afro. I told myself I will look nice with one and I want to be heat free as well. I love your afro, you really look nice with it and thanks this was really hopefully.

[@ericaleshai]

Thank you! Your hair will have to get used to no heat, it took mine a while. But once it does, the afro process will be easier. Just give it time :)

[@danigirlno1]

That was super Gorge😍😍😍✊🏿

[@JayDoubleyoo]

Luvn it!

[@bienally]

what happens when you do it with strait hair? Please tell me!!

[@ericaleshai]

If you hair texture is straight, it probably won't be able to be able hold the circular shape without it falling. Braiding straight textured hair will give it a little definition, but not enough for an afro. The afro style works best when the hair texture is curly or kinky.

[@florrieslay7787]

Love it sis!
