HELL YEAH

Short Curly Hair❤️

Examples of Protective Hair Coverings

I had to scroll through unreasonable amounts of white people for this. Oh, Google.

Durag

Silk Bonnet

Silk Scarf

Loc Socks

Okay, I admit. I've been using loc sock and loc bonnet interchangeably bc I've worn both and I know what I mean, but I cannot do that anymore.

Different styles will require different night time protective care! If your Black character has a silk press, she may choose to wrap her hair in a scarf. If they've got long locs or braids, a long silk bonnet will be better. A teeny weeny afro? A short bonnet will suffice, or they might even go bare. These are far from the only methods! We have oodles of options on how we maintain specific styles. Black hair care requires effort! Research and pick one!

UA’s Ice Queen

————————

Summary: Y/N is known as the ice queen of UA, and not just for her quirk. She’s ice cold to any and everyone, with a few exceptions.

Characters: Tamaki Amajiki, black!fem!reader

Word count: 406

Warnings: none just fluff all around for Tamaki 💜🐙

Pairing: Tamaki Amajiki x black!fem!reader (established relationship)

Note: Y/N has a twa (Teeny Weeny Afro) in this piece.

Note 2: This piece for Tamaki is long overdue but I hope you all enjoy it!

Tag list/mutuals list: @olenoname @mysticpisces

————————————

Underneath a beach umbrella, Y/N sat, content to scroll on her phone mostly her feeds for Instagram and Pinterest. The weather was humid which made her hairstyle perfect for it. Lifting her eyes from the screen of her phone, just for a brief moment, she could see everyone playing in the water.

Even Tamaki.

She could easily pick him out of the crowd filled with women, men, children, and other students from UA who also came to the beach for a rest and relaxation day.

He was with Mirio and Nejire.

The three of them deserved a day like this. No stress. Just fun.

Ping! New message!

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜: I can feel you staring.

Y/N: Do you want me to look away?

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜: No!

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜 is typing…

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜: What I mean is, I like it when your attention is focused on me.

Y/N: Then I’ll make sure to give you all of my undivided attention later.

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜 is typing…

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜: Y/N-chan! It’s Nejire! I think you broke Tamaki!

Y/N: I’ll come down there and reboot him.

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜: And when you get down here, can you make some ice for us? Pleaseee?

Y/N was known as UA’s ice queen not just because of her natural cold disposition but also because the ice that formed when she used her quirk could last for hours because of how unique it was. Which was perfect for this humid weather where the sun could easily melt regular ice.

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜: Pretty please! Think of your kouhai! 🥺

Y/N might be cold but she was by no means heartless.

Y/N: Alright. Alright, I’m on my way.

💜🐙Tamaki🐙💜: Yay! 😃

Standing up and getting out from underneath the umbrella and stretching as she felt the warmth of the sun from above and the sand beneath her feet, Y/N began to make her way down the beach.

This really was a day of relaxation.

shaving my head again cuz my brother said he'll double check for spots i missed <3 i know what i need to do differently to grow and maintain my hair now so it's not worth keeping broken half-dead teeny weenie afro on my head; let's finally start fresh (and hopefully be ready to start locs next year!)

//Josep has his cheekbones, Giovanni his mismatched eyes, the Twins have their crooked noses, Rashid his bald head, Abena's teeny weeny afro-

My favorite unique physical trait of Ruixiong's is his large/long earlobes. They are, sadly, seldom clearly visible due to his hair, though.

This post basically describes half of my living, breathing life as a Black woman. It's not that you MUST plan every hairstyle. It's the alchemical magic of Black hair and the plethora of incredible styles we can do with our hair that makes planning for events fun and stressful all at the same fucking time. Also, weather is a factor as well; will it be sweltering hot that my twa (teeny weeny afro) will sizzle in the sun so bad that I'll look like I have a Sisko (the thong song) Ceaser cut? What if it's too windy outside and decide to wear this bomb lace front wig- do I have time to get it installed or should I Diy it with some Got2be freeze spray and hope for the best. But one thing I will say, 99.9% of Black women won't use Gorilla Glue on any part of our hair, scalp, edges, sideburns- they don't even sell Gorilla Glue at the beauty supply store. Don't even ask me how that girl thought a industrial strength adhesive used at construction sites called GORILLA GLUE was for Black women's hair. Side bar: Yes I know Gorilla Snot exists- I use it but it's not a 'Black hair product'. I've bought it at my local bodega, Target and Shoprite. A lot of different race of people use Gorilla Snot. Unfortunately, the only person in the entire fucking world who thought using Gorilla Glue as a hold for a slick side pony was a Black woman- I guess we have to make history however we can. 🤷🏾‍♀️

TWA [Teeny-Weenie-Afro] Dance Moves

[pat7garcia]

THE WEP'S LAST COMPETITION OF THE YEAR, OVER TO YOU, DECEMBER 2023, THE SCREENWRITER By Pat Garcia @WEP, @TheIWSG, #writingcontest, #flashfiction @pat_garcia

Tagline: Last week’s question about her short, teeny-weeny-afro (TWA) almost caused her to explode and show him that she had muscles. She was ready to give him her Ali left punch and knock him out.  Esther Mae Brodie, a chubby-sized, dark-skinned forty-two-year-old woman Expat living in Helsinki, didn’t care too much for C.J. Laine. The 5-foot-nine-inch Finnish man with a head full of light…

GOALS

[oliveroctavius]

okay okay. Glory keeps the teeny weeny afro because I feel like it's necessary for her overall look. Hobie starts with his 60s 'do and but I'll probably have him switch to spider verse esque locs later. Mindy has relaxed hair. Randy gets twists and Miles whenever I get to his addition will have his comicverse fade; that would be in the late 2010s regardless

it's fun to be into comic book fashion and pick apart other people's costuming until I'm driving myself nuts over styling decisions in my own 'verse

[creatingblackcharacters]

can I ask what TWA stands for? I'd love to hear you talk more about them too!

Teeny weeny afro! It's the fresh growth after you cut all your hair off.

Mine used to look like this, except not dyed! There's nothing I can say about them that I haven't said about afros, because that's all they are. I just really love them! I especially love seeing Black women when they first get them, bc there's a lot of hair anxiety from community both externally and internally to keep it longer and straight as possible.

I've told this story before, but it wasn't until I was 17 that I saw my own natural curl pattern. My first TWA revealed to me that this whole time, my hair was 4C curly. My entire life spent aiming for straight hair- imagine not knowing what your own damn hair looked like. It was such a pivotal moment for me, my Blackness, and my self image, and I want that moment of self love and recognition for all Black women, that the hair that grows out your head is beautiful too. 💖

Natural hair tips

I just starte detail my natural hair again and I have a teeny weeny Afro. Anybody have any tips ??

[livelikejasmine]

I did a big chop August 2017. My first ever. The best decision I’ve ever made in regards to my hair. Thought I’d share since I’ve been feeling the TWA lately

[creatingblackcharacters]

Hiii!I would kindly request help with choosing a hairstyle for my Black character.

she's a warrior type character,one of main characters,very much one of the smarter and more 'practical' characters with her theme color being purple.I should note she is one of the most feminine designs i did. I was trying a lot of hairstyles for her but none really stuck.For example,i tried side part sculpted curls,fluffy wand curls,straight hair in a bob(imagine a white Karen-like haistyle there...),short knotless braids,bantu knots and twist outs but none worked out for a longer peroid of time.Another note is that she lives in a place where hair products are definetly available(thankfully!).

Any hairstyles that might fit a character like that?Short,long or medium lenght,it doesnt matter.

Thank you in advance!Have a great day,and thank you very much for this blog.Your posts make my day a lot of times.

Hi! Why didn't they "work"? Did you just not like how they looked? Because you've chosen a range of looks here, and bantu knots woulda been an awesome look (and they do last). But if you really just weren't feeling anything, just give her a teeny weeny afro and be done with it lol.
