Don't call it a comeback! (Because it really never actually went away).
The magnanimous AFRO, sometimes shortened to 'fro and also known as a "natural", is a hairstyle worn by people with lengthy kinky hair texture or specifically styled in such a fashion by individuals with naturally curly or straight hair.
This is the Wikipedia definition. And it will suffice.
However for those who proudly claim any ounce of African descent, the afro is less the definition of something that is done to the hair, but instead, more the definition of something the hair just does. Naturally.
On Saturday, June 20, from 7:00pm - 10:00pm, at House of Art Gallery, located at 408 Marcus Garvey Blvd, Bed-Stuy/Clinton Hill resident and photographer Michael July will be on-hand to celebrate the opening reception of "Afros," an exhibit of some of the beautiful, lush and alluring photos culled from July's book, "Afros: A Celebration of Natural Hair."
