How often you supposed to pick you hair when its growing into an afro?

While the impression has been given that walking around picking out an afro throughout the whole day is how it's supposed to be, truthfully, you only need to pick it out when you feel it needs some primping.

Make sure you pick it out after you awake because sleeping on it likely has made it seem smaller than what it is, and do so after anytime you lie down on it, or maybe you or someone else has put their hand(s) on your head throwing off its shape; you can pick it out if you feel you want to groom it back to style.
