Afros have come and gone and come again. A staple in popular music during the late 1960s and 1970s, the “fro” has made a resurgence over the past several years as a retro fashion statement. While all Afros should be celebrated, some have clearly been bolder than others. In the JamsBio Ultimate Frodown, we ask you to vote on for your favorite fros in a variety of categories.

I knew no list was complete without Omar. :D

Griffin said:

there is no way that lenny fucking kravitz has a better afro than omar. what is wrong with the world?

freakboy said:

Brian May? Mitch Mitchell?

bigby said:

I agree, Omar has a much better fro. What about Claudio Sanchez though? That’s one of the most prolific fros I’ve ever seen on a white guy.
