Glossy, poker straight hair is such a simple staple style yet it oozes sophistication. The middle part, once a hair ‘no no’, completes the look and must be as centred as possible. Many afro haired women are reluctant to use heat on their hair but with the right heat protectant and minimal heat manipulation, you can pull this look off without burning your locks. Alternatively there are wigs on the market that come ready made like this with the option to layer it to your liking meaning you can sleek it up on and off as many times as you want.
