well being african-american myself i would suggest getting her hair braided. Whether she just wants a couple of cornrows or a head full of singles. Braids in my opinion might be your best bet. First, find a good place to get her hair done if u don't know how to yourself.Just remember the more braids and the smaller they are the more money you'll have to pay. Once they're done the main things to remember are that it needs to be washed every week or two then greased( i'd suggest Blue Magic,it's a grease brand) also when greasing the head start at the front side of head by the ear and grease to the back of head in between braids,and after that put her hair in a ponytail on top of her head if she got singles or if she got simple cornrows just throw a bandana on her head,(same after doing the ponytail with singles).Also if head is very sensitive after braiding then either boil some hot water and bend your head to where the steam can touch your head and moisten/loosen up the braids or get some hot water on a wash cloth ring it out and lay it on your head. if there's anything i forgot u can reach me at my email bajan_cutie112@yahoo.com
What braided styles %26amp; Hair accesories would be good for a 12 yr.old African-American girl ??
Cornrows, braided pigtails (set of four), all-over braids with beads covering every braid, all-over braids with weave to lengthen it or with her natural hair (if it's long enough to hang down), pony tail with sock bun. Always add decals (beads gold balls, etc) to her hair, it'll make her feel pretty and they hold the hair in and prevent it from untwining. Go to the corner dolar store or beauty shop (where the Koreans work) and purchase some decals for her hair.
It would help if you posted her hair texture. Most African-American children these days have that soft biracial hair that is pretty much the same as Caucasian hair.

You can wear a ponytail of a braided style. That will be good. And for the hair accesories you can wear a cute clip.

cornrows in an updo, cornrows with zigzag design (like alicia keys used to wear) with the wooden looking beads (I wouldn't use the colorful ones because she might think that looks too young, like someone under 8 or so)
you could try micro braids but be careful and make sure they aren't too small or too tight or it might cause breakage.
with the micro or individual braids she can do pretty much anything... ponytails, buns, you can set it on rollers and dip it in hot water to create spiral curls or wear it down.
Hope this helps

It could be anything as long as its not in dreadlocks. I think those are the worst! It looks so unkept. I think they have great hair despite it being coarse... I know there are new things out for those kind of women and it is great to see them take care of thier hair now than it did a long time ago in the 70's.. yikes I have had some scary moments when I see them walk with an huge afro back then.. now its not so bad.. its more stylish now that there's more products out there for women. Thank god for modern times now.. heh heh heh
