[view source]Cultural Context
The prepared style features black coily hair with shaved sides and a longer top, with an Afro comb (hair pick) still lodged in the hair. The Afro pick became a symbol of Black pride and identity during the 1970s, often featuring a raised fist as its handle decoration. Leaving the pick in the hair is both a practical styling moment and a cultural statement — being "prepared" means being in the process of self-creation.
