Natural hair for people of African Ancestory. Beautiful, and unique. Will come in many different textures. Endless styling possiblities. Can be brushed out, or worn close to the head.
More blacks should wear their natural Afro, instead of conforming to a western European standard of beauty.

When used alone, this means a big ass round curly hair-do worn by blacks. If combined with another word it just means African.
