An afro is a hairstyle where the hair extends outward like a cloud and can be worn as large as several times the diameter of the head. Afros were very popular in the 60s and 70s when folks liked to wear unprocessed natural hairstyles. Today afros are used in movies and television to get laughs about their larger than life dimensions. Many of these jokes are satirical, poking fun about hiding ridiculously large items in an afro. Many afro wig costumes are available to help you flashback to a groovier time.
