21. Rihanna African American Hairstyle: Long, glamorous ombre curls

Songstress Rihanna looks breathtaking with her long, glamorous curls. Her middle-parting flatters her oval-shaped face, and the light ombre ends of her hair brighten up her complexion. If you don’t have naturally straight hair that you can heat style, you can easily recreate Rihanna’s look with a high-quality weave or a lace-front wig.

22. Naomie Harris African American Hairstyle: Half-up, half-down pompadour

Actress Naomie Harris combines two hot trends with her red-carpet hairstyle – half-up, half-down hair, and a voluminous pompadour (puffy bubble of hair). This long hairstyle is simple yet elegant, and it can be recreated quite easily at home with the right styling tools.

23. Keri Hilson African American Hairstyle: Super-long box braids

Actress and singer Keri Hilson wears her super-long, chunky box braids in a sexy up’do. Long braids are very striking, and we simply love Keri’s bold braided hairstyle. Long box braids can be quite bulky and heavy, so this hairstyle might not be the best choice for an everyday style.

24. Danai Gurira African American Hairstyle: Natural and close-cropped

The Walking Dead star Danai Gurira looks sultry and beautiful with her natural, close-cropped ‘do. If you’re struggling with damaged, chemically treated hair, why not consider the “big chop”? Close-cropped natural hair can look great, and this short style gives your hair a chance to grow back healthy.

25. Rihanna African American Hairstyle: Blonde mohawk

Rihanna mixes it up and rocks an edgy, blonde mohawk with a side-swept fringe. This is an easy style to recreate with short, relaxed hair. Take care when chemically treating and colouring your hair, as these styling processes can badly damage hair and stunt hair growth.

26. Jada Pinkett Smith African American Hairstyle: Braided low bun

Actress Jada Pinkett Smith looks classy and confident with her braided low bun. This hairstyle is great for summer, as it keeps hair up and away from your face and shoulders. The low bun is classy and understated, making this a great hairstyle for work.

27. Solange Knowles African American Hairstyle: Full, springy coils

Solange Knowles looks fresh and carefree with her short, springy coils of hair. This is a simple hairstyle that embraces the growing-out period of your natural hair. You can glam this hairdo up by accessorizing it with a hair-friendly silk headband, or a patterned silk scarf.

28. Kerry Washington African American Hairstyle: Long bob with bangs

Actress Kerry Washington wears her hair super-straight, with eye-brow skimming bangs. Her bangs shorten her long, oval face and draw attention to her eyes, which are perfectly made up with a shimmery blue eye-shadow. The long bob is a flattering style that’s in-between short and long hair, and it’s easy to maintain with regular trims.

29. Teyana Taylor African American Hairstyle: Tri-colour curls

American recording artist Teyana Taylor spices up her big, bouncy curls by dyeing them different colours. Her hair is parted slightly off-centre, keeping her hair out of her face. Teyana chooses trending shades of purple to add to the ends of her hair for an edgy, alternative look.

30. Nicole Beharie African American Hairstyle: Micro-braids with curls

Sleepy Hollow TV star Nicole Beharie wears her hair in micro-braids with delicate, medium-length curls. She sweeps her braids into a low ponytail, leaving a few loose curls to frame her face. Micro-braids are a great protective hairstyle, and they are light and flexible when styling.

    alicia keys head looked weird.. she look like she turnt her head all the way around .like a owl

      Hmm…I think that that occurred just because the braid is asymmetrical. At any rate, her head does not look like an owl in real life, so I am sure that the impression is just temporary. Once she has a different haircut or photo angle, she will look just like normal. Thanks for the feedback!
