i think it looks cute in the thumbnail, but i think i'd like to see a picture of the whole coord before i made my decision.

played correctly, though, natural hair can look great on any lolita. honestly i think it's just a bunch of stuck up assholes who want to make everything more difficult for everyone when they emphasize wigs as a nessecity.

I think big natural 'fros look gorgeous with big hair accessories. If you look in the GLBs there's a number of hairstyles with afro pigtails and fairly big hair, which I also think are really cute.

fucking cute

>>6662326
I've tried to find pics of her entire coord. Unfortunately, I can only find the headshot. I'll keep looking, though.

>>6662328
Hmm, I've never seen those. Most of the coords I see are with long, flowing hair. Thanks, anon. I'll have to see if I can find some.

Sounds like a great reason to incorporate 60's and 70's styles into lolita fashion.

>>6662328
basically this, i'm pretty sure i've seen brands' models have afro-esque wigs on
poofy hair balances out a poofy skirt

When I was a girl I was crazy jealous of black girls with poofy fro buns. I'd love to see coords and loli hairstyles with the natural.

This is another picture I found.

I don't think a full fro works with sweet, especially with a bow/anything in it.

Big poofy hair ball/bun things is a whole other story.

I feel afro's would look nice with classic

>>6662334
Well, we have that "housewife" lolita stuff

>>6662336
This is true.

>>6662337
I've found her blog here: http://kawaii-afro-fluff.tumblr.com/
Creeping through it to see if she posts anything other than headshots.

I mean, it's like any other hairstyle. If it's well-maintained and you know how to coord it with proper hair accessories, go for it.

Personally I think it's fucking kawaii.


>>6662334
Lawd yes. No idea how this would work but it sounds fabulous.

>>6662356
>Well, we have that "housewife" lolita stuff
I think they meant more like blaxploitation/discofabulous?

>>6662352
Huh. I can't really picture that. I'll have to search for coords.

>>6662357
I think I'm gonna go for it. There are some days like in the summer where a wig just isn't going to happen.

>>6662364
The afro with classic
or whatever people call the afro buns that black girls can achieve(I've seen those big 'cotton candy like' wigs, kind of like those)

Here's another afro.
I'd appreciate it if she put on some shoes, but other than that, the coord is ok.

Now THAT looks like shit. The other chick posted in this thread looks fantastic, though.

>>6662415
If you're taking a photo to show your coord, you should show the whole coord.

>>6662338
I like it and she looks great. If your fro looks anything like this then do it.

>>6662322 (OP)
Its adorbs as fuck man!
But I really like it when black girls know how to rock natural hair, so take that as you will.

>>6662416
Why do you think it looks like shit, exactly?
>>6662415
It just feels really weird if you're going to go through the trouble to get all dolled up, and then you don't do something as simple as put shoes on...

>>6662423
I wear my hair naturally, but I haven't got a fro. I do Bantu knots at night, then take them out for a springy/curly look. I've been trying to do an afro, though.

>>6662412
Yeah, I agree.

you guys are complaining that she's not wearing shoes
to which i say, of course, she's inside a house, why would she have shoes on?

i dont get it, but let's agree to drop it so everyone can talk about afros

I adore afros, they're definitely the cutest hair style for black girls IMO. You can always look into how black victorian women did their hair for inspiration.

I love her hair.

Huh. More Rococo looking than loli, but she still looks awesome.

>>6662567
lol that's because it is

>>6662567
>rococo
>that

I don't think that means what you think it does.

If you're a black lolita just wear whatever you want because you'll always look fucking stupid since you're wearing a fashion style that doesn't suit you.

Wow. This thread has surprisingly little dumb "hurr all black gurls are ugly and bad at lolita" shit and no /pol/-tier arguments at all. I'm proud of you, seagulls.

Afros were popular a little while ago.

I want to wear an afro wig with lolita but I think it would look silly on me as I'm asian. I think 'fros look so cute though!

It's basically like any other hair: if it's nice, thick and well maintained you can rock it.

>>6662851
hi hello yes this so hard

Honestly afros look soooo much better on black Lolita's that Gothic lolita wigs. It just looks like a costume :(

I think bigger longer afros look better with lolita. The shorter tighter afros just look weird to me.

>>6662884

I've noticed that asians can look god with well-maintained afros. For example, she looks pretty cute.

I love afros. The girl in the OP image has one that's a good size, too. >>6662373 is way too big. Smaller afros are very cute.

Are we still pretending black people don't look retarded in lolita?

Do a lot of asians have naturally curly/afro-qualifiable hair? I feel like it's something that doesn't occur very often, or at least I haven't seen much.

Honestly afros really don't go all that well with lolita. There are a few local lolis that wear their hair naturally and it just looks like a giant trainwreck.
From the neck up they look pretty cute but, as a whole it looks weird.
Maybe if you styled the whole outfit to be more 1950's it might look cute though.
However I think most black lolitas looks cuter with straight/wavy hair.

I don't know where you guys live but typically here in this part of the US you don't take your shoes off in another person's home. If it's your own home it's okay, but in someone else's home you keep them on unless you're staying there for an extended period of time.
I don't know why we do it we just do it.

>>6664234
>*don't* take shoes off when you come into someones house
what part of the us do you live in? In the midwest that word is law

>>6664242

Deep south. Specifically redneck Georgia.
I think the reason why we don't take them off is because a pretty large chunk of the southern population lives in trailer homes. And if you have ever been in a trailer home you don't want to take of your shoes. Those racthet ass carpets will dirty up your socks in minutes.

>>6664257
Nope, I'm a rich New Englander and we don't take off our shoes either.

>>6664234
Removing shoes in houses is pretty common in parts of Socal, too. Might just be where I live since we have a pretty large mixed-bag Asian population.

>>6664266

I think thats just due to stigma. I visited the home of a rich friend of mine and her and her family keep theres on. I asked them why they do that since they have pristine white floors and her dad told me it's because he lived in a trailer for most of his life till he made it big.
Since its such a common thing for commoners to do the rich must have caught on.

Or maybe its just an east coast thing. I'm not sure really. Someone needs to do a research paper on this shit.

>>6664143
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems more common among people who can trace their heritage in hot environments. I especially see this sort of thing among bi/multi-racial people of black and South, Southeast-Asian or Pacific Islander decent; my younger cousins have a Laotian mother and a dad who is half black and Caucasian, so their hair tends to be thick, curly, and has a tendency to get brittle over time (I saw the same thing for a lady I knew who was half German and half Thai). I imagine if the youngest had his hair grown out, it would be a full on fro. My mom and her sisters, and my brother have naturally wavy hair and I think occurs from the Vietnamese side of the family. Unfortunately, I have my dad's straight hair (and pale skin), and I honestly wouldn't be surprised if I can trace my roots to the Northern Asian countries from my dad's side.

>>6664278
im pacific islander and my grandparents wore shoes in the house. i think its mostly common for anyone who just don't want to dirty their floors with outdoor shoes, and some people just don't notice how many germs and bacteria are on the ground.

Yeah... no. It's really not about trailers. No one (or at least not many people) I know has ever lived in a trailer.

I don't know, to me it seems an asinine cultural novelty like saying "pop" or "soda." I really don't understand why people get so worked up over it.

i live in the midwest as well and everyone removes their shoes in a household
i understand me doing it because my mother's japanese, but that wouldn't explain why white people do it too

i've lived in florida, new york, and washington and everyone i knew also removed their shoes. i'm weirded out that this isnt a common thing now.

>>6664266
I live in New England and take my shoes off while in the house. If it's during a cold season I'll wear socks and slippers.

>>6664311
I live in New York and I have literally never met anyone that did this, other than one weeaboo who thought it was kawaii and Japanese.
