61. Rihanna African American Hairstyle: Medium-length beachy waves

Rihanna looks like she’s just stepped off the beach in Barbados with her gorgeous blonde beachy waves. Her just-above-the-shoulder length hair is full of body and texture, and her wavy bangs are very flattering for her oval-shaped face. Paying attention to your face shape is very important when deciding to get a fabulous new cut, as you can make sure it’ll look great!

62. Tika Sumpter African American Hairstyle: Ballerina bun

Actress Tika Sumpter looks picture perfect with her tightly wound ballerina bun. This is a super-simple style that can be both glamorous and casual, depending on your outfit, makeup, and accessories. Tika keeps her look sleek and polished with her hair totally swept back away from her face.

63. Zoe Saldana African American Hairstyle: Crowning braid

Zoe Saldana embraces the braid trend and gives it a new. unique twist. She wears her hair loose with a braid of her own hair as a headband. Recreate this pretty, feminine look by forming two braids; one at each temple. Secure the two together in a sort of “crown” for a stunning braided headband effect.

64. Garcelle Beauvais African American Hairstyle: Loose and slicked back

Actress Garcelle Beauvais has perfected the trending “wet look” hairstyle, and we think she looks fabulous! Her hair is slicked back and worn loose for maximum effect. To achieve wet-look hair, carefully smooth hair on the top of your head back with gel, and then blow-dry it to keep everything in place. Leave the rest of your hair dry for a great contrast.

65. Solange Knowles African American Hairstyle: Wild, carefree afro

We consider Solange Knowles a great ambassador for natural hair – and she’s super stylish too! Here she looks gorgeous with her wild, carefree afro all grown out. We love her natural hair texture, and her halo of healthy, springy coils. This is also a manageable length for an afro, as it’s nicely in-between a TWA (teeny weeny afro) and a huge, high-maintenance ‘do.

66. Beyonce African American Hairstyle: Medium length, tousled waves

Queen B looks causal and carefree with her medium-length, tousled waves of hair. Her hair has plenty of texture, and we love the summery shade of blonde she’s chosen. To protect your hair from damage caused by heat styling and bleaching, use plenty of protective hair styling products, and moisturize your hair every day.

67. Nia Long African American Hairstyle: Perky pixie

American actress Nia Long looks feisty with her long and perky pixie cut. We love her side-swept fringe and her softly spiked hair. The pixie cut is a trending short hairstyle that can be tweaked to suit your face shape and your hair texture. Consult your stylist to find the best pixie cut for you.

68. Kelly Rowland African American Hairstyle: Straight with subtle highlights

Songstress Kelly Rowland looks stunning with her straight hair and chunky bangs. Kelly makes her simple ‘do more interesting with some subtle, carefully placed highlights. The coffee-coloured streaks give her hair depth and brighten up her face.

69. Tatyana Ali African American Hairstyle: Side-swept and long

American actress and R&B singer Tatyana Ali follows the side-swept hair trend and wears her raven tresses swept to one side. This look is very easy to recreate, with loads of hairspray and a thin curling iron to get her gorgeous, cascading curls.

70. Kelis African American Hairstyle: Quirky quiff

Singer Kelis rocks a quirky, sky-high quiff with shaved sides. We love her side-swept fringe and the subtle highlights at the back of her head. We also really love her phenomenal eye make-up and her dewy, glowing skin. This is a great hairstyle for you if you don’t mind drawing attention to your face.

    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!
