Donnell - You'll want to be sure you're using a strong moisturizing shampoo and conditioner to help control frizz in your hair from the humidity. Check out Best Moisturizer for Black Hair and Natural Hair Products for Blacks for some recommendations.

Nic - If your hair is very thin, getting twists may mean pulling the hair much too tight which would cause damage and additional thinning. You should consult a stylist who is very experienced with African American hair and ask to see a portfolio of their work and get their recommendations for your hair style.

Dee - Yes, he could easily get cornrows with hair that short, but micro braids wouldn't work as well. It can be a challenge to work with hair so short, however, so be sure he visits a stylist with plenty of experience.

My bf wants to get his hair braided but it's only about 1-1/2 to 2 inches long. Is that enough length to get cornrows? or micro braids?

Mel -- Yes, twists could work for you, or you may want to try a small, light verson of dreadlocks. Work with a stylist who knows the tricks to natural styles, and you'll be sure to find one you love!

I'm an African American man with long hair. I don't want to cut my hair, don't want to use any chemicals, and am tired of braids. I want to try a new hair-style. Something like a long-curly style...sort of like Corbin Bleu's hair. How can I achieve such a style without using chemicals? Could twists be my answer?

Hi Drew, You might want to try a going natural while you're growing it out. Not only will it give your hair a break, but short-to medium hair on men is a popular look. Use moisturizer to keep hair healthy, and try using styling products with natural ingredients, which are gentler on your hair.

Hi Reggie, You might want to check out some style books that your salon or barber has available. A couple popular styles for men are close shaves, short dreds, and short to medium natural styles.

Hi Chace, Celebrity hairstylist Nedjetti recommends using natural ingredient hair products. To get the style you want and maintain healthy hair, try gels that contain natural ingredients and no alcohol, like Treasured Locks Shea Butter Gel.

Hi Myck, If your is soft and you have difficulty getting it braided, you may want to consider a natural style - there are many natural styles that look very attractive on men. Certain hair products can add texture to the hair which may aid in braiding, but having a professional stylist prepare and braid the hair may be well-worth it to prevent damage and to help you achieve the look you want. Best of luck!
