When styling short afro looks, you can easily pick it all out together. To do this, unclip or untie your hair, and run your fingers through it gently to create your basic shape. If your hair is longer than 6 inches (15 cm) or so, you may find it easier to pick out your hair in smaller sections. To do this, simply leave your hair in its twist or braid and pick 1 section at a time. Start in the back and work your way towards the front to keep your shape consistent. If you have longer hair, you may want to apply another conditioning product before you pick out your hair. This keeps the follicle protected as you create your hairstyle. Scoop up a quarter-sized amount of shea butter, and rub it between both of your palms. Then, run your hands on either side of your hair to evenly coat it. You can also run your fingers through your hair to get it in between each section. When picking your hair, you want to lift the hair starting at the root. This will elongate the hair. Insert the pick into your hairline as close to your roots as you can. It is important to avoid damaging the ends of your hair. To prevent this, move the pick out of your afro when you reach the end of your hair, rather than pulling it all the way through. This also provides ample definition and volume, so you can get the best shape possible. For short hairstyles, start at the top of your head and work your way around both sides. If you are picking your hair in sections,  it can be helpful to work your way from back to front. Repeat the same movements across all of your hair to create the shape of your afro. After you’ve picked through all of your hair, pat the outside of your hair gently to create your shape and hide stray pieces of hair. Move your hands back and forth repetitively to shape all sides of your afro. You can start at the top and work your way around from either side. Don’t forget to pat the back! Pat down the same area multiple times if that helps create your perfect shaped fro. Inspect your afro in the mirror, and make sure your shape is perfect. If there are any spots that are not even with the rest, run your pick through your hair and pat it back down. Continue this until you are satisfied with the look of your afro!
