oke: Not microphone, doesn't look damaged. So would you rock that? If not, why?
How about this sort of shape of an afro:
Rei, if Esperanza's crazy look (IMO) is the look you're going for, then it is clear our tastes are on opposite ends of the spectrum. That doesn't even make me think chunky afro. I am not being mean. I don't know anyone in real life who actually goes around looking like that.

I'm actually laughing out loud imagining her taking a final look at herself in the mirror before she leaves home.

I hope I never accidentally drink what some of y'all are drinking. I am all for big hair. But it has to be big hair that looks like some grooming effort was applied, not that looks like you can't manage it and so leave it to its own devices.

You know what the hair remind me off, those locs that clump in big ugly chunks.
Esperanza's afro below is the sort of big hair I prefer; it is clear she owns a comb and I'd not suspect her of being a few sandwiches short of a picnic if I saw her with hair like this. This looks like a classic afro that has just been around all day so no longer perfect but it is clearly groomed hair:
That first pic
loshed posted was the sort of look I'd associate with a mentally ill person or someone on drugs or someone too ill to care for their hair. And I'm glad that's not all our hair is capable of because if it were, then I'd totally understand people not wanting to have type 4 hair. I don't think I'd want it either.
ms-gg, your chunky afro has uniformity so it doesn't look unkempt. As long as there is some order and form, I can see it as a style. I personally would not wear it coz I'm not a fan, but I can actually see there was some effort in creating it and can appreciate it. The chunky fro in your siggy reminds me of a style my cousins used to create by sectioning the hair in square sections and braiding just the tips of the hair and tucking them under so you had similar shapes all over.
Rei...would you still find the chunky fro that I preferred boring if the hair were longer? Like say this:
