Michelle Obama Rocking Natural Afro Hairdo

Posted in: , ,
What do you think of Michelle Obama's afro hairstyle? I looks great if you ask me, and coming from Nigeria where we love changing our hairstyles every other week, the new hairstyle makes a lot of sense.


Some people are wondering how the majority of Americans will take it. We all know some parts of black America are obsessed with natural versus straightened hair, and some parts of white America are obsessed with how "really" American President Obama and Michelle are.

Well, they all need not worry. It is just photoshop! The handiwork of some of those in the first group who want to see the first lady in afro curls by hook or crook. Maybe like Viola Davis at the Oscars, Michelle Obama is listening and will rock her some real afro, LOL...


Check out some of the other looks of Michelle Obama.

Short Curls

Updo Curls

 Shoulder Length and Wavy

Pulled Back


Curls with a Side Fringe

Pageboy (This look somehow reminds me of Patience Jonathan's makeover)

    2. Very stylish indeed! I am not sure society is ready for such an edgy coif, but I would be proud of her no matter how she wears her hair--note though, i really, really like it!

  2. You headline is good but I would delete 'her' or 'some' and not use both words together...

    Anyway, I saw 'Naija Stories' anthology on NVS. Wow! Good job and it will surely sell. Next time, edited by Myne Whitman might look better than 'Myne Whitman - Editor'.

    Excuse my KNOW ALL attitude. It's part of my job.

    1. Thank you, Anonymous. But I am just the Series Editor and did not really edit the anthology. Please send me an email, maybe I can use your editing services some time. :)

  3. I dig the curly-curls on Michelle BUT not right now. It takes an edge off the strength she exhudes. Juuuust a little bit. [in my mind, that style works best for 30-and-under trying to get a seat in the boardroom]

  4. Michelle Obama is a stylish lady. I do agree, though, that the curly-curls is probably not a 'power' look.

  7. there are hardly any hairstyles or outfits that dont look Georguous on the first lady, she is sooo beautiful and Elegant... she is my Secret Crush/Lover.

    plus she seems to be the brains and support behind Barack Obama, and being able to be so powerful but yet supportive, is a very sexy trait.

  12. I love the afro look on her. She would certainly pull it off if it was real.

  13. Myne it might be 'fun' as you say but it's all about priorities and strategies..and timing. Isn't she trying to get her husband re-elected right now? Not the time to by trying new things. It could backfire like Felicity's hair.

  14. I love me Michelle. Digging the hair but hope its not a style meant for long term wear. Those curly pieces tend to look like mops if one is no careful.
