31. Rihanna African American Hairstyle: Bright red curls

We just can’t get enough of Rihanna’s stunning, bright red hair! Here she wears it in a cute up’do with side-swept bangs and a bow-tied headband. The secret to pulling off such elaborate hairstyles is, you guessed it: lace-front wigs. Lace-fronts are a great way to enjoy a fun, flirty new look without damaging your own hair with dyes and heat-styling.

32. Eva Marcille African American Hairstyle: Curly mini-mohawk

Model-turned-actress Eva Marcille looks cheeky and sexy with her curly blonde mini-mohawk. With slicked-back sides and soft spikes on top, this hairstyle is edgy yet feminine. Eva’s ash-blonde locks give this look extra impact, but it can work just as well with darker hair.

33. Naomi Campbell African American Hairstyle: Structured curls with bangs

Super-model Naomi Campbell goes all out with her glossy, structured curls and her signature bangs. Her long hair is cut into layers that softly frame her face, and her bangs draw attention to her eyes. This is quite an elaborate hairstyle to recreate, so be prepared to spend some time with your curling wand and your hair products!

34. Alek Wek African American Hairstyle: Barely there

Sudanese-born British supermodel Alek Wek is radiantly beautiful with her super-short hairdo. She makes a bold statement with minimal makeup and a brightly coloured dress, and we love how she’s embraced her barely-there hairstyle. This ‘do suits confident women who aren’t afraid to draw attention to their faces.

35. Meagan Good African American Hairstyle: Sexy mohawk

Foxy actress Meagan Good goes all out with her sky-high, side-shaved mohawk. Meagan looks confident and sexy with this quirky hairstyle, and she wears bold and bright makeup to draw all the attention to her gorgeous face. With this versatile hairstyle, you can wear your hair up in a mohawk, or down in a side-swept fringe, depending on your mood.

36. Keri Hilson African American Hairstyle: Asymmetrical bob

American singer and actress Keri Hilson looks stunning with her short, two-tone asymmetrical bob. With a long side-swept fringe and short hair at the back, this hairstyle is funky and fashionable. We especially love Keri’s combination of chestnut brown and jet black hair.

37. Gabrielle Union African American Hairstyle: Plaited pony

Actress Gabrielle Union wears her long hair pulled back into a pretty, plaited ponytail. This is an easy way to update the boring old ponytail – wear your pony high up on your head in a trendy fishtail plait for a glamorous twist. Make sure you secure your plait properly so it does’t unravel half-way through the night!

38. Beyonce African American Hairstyle: Reverse ombre curls

Beyonce looks fresh-faced and flirty with her long, soft curls. She sports a reverse ombre dye-job (fading from light to dark, instead of the other way round) which gives her curls a bit of depth. This is a great casual, everyday hairstyle that you can add accessories to for different occasions.

39. Solange Knowles African American Hairstyle: Medium-length braids

Solange Knowles never fails to look fabulous, no matter her choice of hairstyle. Here she’s wearing her medium-length braids loose, with the ends slightly unraveled. This is a practical and manageable length for braids if you’re wanting to get them long!

40. Rihanna African American Hairstyle: Sexy side-shaved ‘do

Rihanna brought back the side-shaved trend when she partially lopped off her locks for this edgy, sexy ‘do. The contrast between her short, fuzzy sides and long, flowing waves of hair is quite striking. This is a great way to give your simple long hairstyle an alternative twist.

    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!
