When many women have decided to go natural after many years of wearing relaxed or permed hairstyles made the decision because they experienced too much hair breakage and damage from the strong no-lye cream relaxers they used since they were a child. Many of the hair care products for black women are made with toxic chemicals and damaging ingredients that actually stops hair growth or causes hair loss. So many women who have made the transition from relaxers to natural hair have noticed a difference in the men they attract. While wearing your hair natural you may have noticed that the men who are more serious and deep thinkers are approaching your for your telephone number.

Dating Men and Natural Hair

Men and natural hairstyles seem to be a interesting situation because since you are becoming more real about who you are and you are presenting a more confident vibe of self esteem you attract men who are not superficial but down to earth and interested in who your are as a woman of beauty, some have even said they get compliments from men who are non-black as well as a new type of man, those who wear dreads or locs and they seem to have more to say about what is going on in the economy from politics to music to business, which I would say is a definite plus. I have noticed this myself, now that I am natural I attract a more socially conscious, advocate male. I also see that I attract more white, and latin men as well. Maybe its because of their fascination with black women in their natural state.

 Some young black women who are wearing two-strand twists, afros, Banti Knots, twist outs, braid outs, etc, say they are finding that older men are attracted to them and they are getting attention from men who are old enough to be their uncle, so what is the cause for this, some say its because men 50 and older remember the styles of the 60's and the afro style makes them reminisce of the past of hippies era. So what ever the reason women who wear their hair in natural curly kinky styles are getting noticed and it is on a upswing and is positive. It is causing women to love themselves more and the attention of a man who is attracted to their natural hair is more reason to keep up the fight for showing the world that it is okay to be different and conformity is not always the best especially if it is causing unnecessary damage to ones hair.

What natural styles get the most attention?

Well from the sources I read the braid out seems to be the popular look among men, they like the big wavy kinky curly styles as well as the two strand twists. Curly puffs are also a favorite, but basically a nice blow out is good and for a simple sophisticated look a up do is also nice. If you are looking for a new and hot natural hairstyle one that is easy to do and has a really nice style is the fro hawk, now this style looks good with curly hair and blow outs, first section off your hair in three big pony tails, then take the sides and pull it back maybe using a denman brush to smooth down the edges, then make sure the front is really high and the three seperate parts of hair is sectioned high down the middle of your head and your done, spray some sheen and your ready to go out on the town.
