To dream of an old style Afro hairstyle represents a thinking style that overly enthusiastic about embracing something completely like it's fantastic, while not caring what anyone else thinks about it.

Negatively, dreaming about an old style Afro may represent a thinking style that feels good embracing something in a way that is overly enthusiastic, outdated, and out of touch with current realities. A thinking style that feels exceptionally good embracing things in ways that are completely out of touch with what other people think. Enjoying yourself thinking nobody else thinks a topic is outdated to talk about before reality sets in that it was. Embarrassment that you or someone else is over-enthusiastic about old ideas that look stupid wanting to to begin with. Feeling silly that you liked talking to people about the past in a enthusiastic way when they think it's outdated. A sense of being disconnected from current realities or trends. Being perceived as overly enthusiastic about ideas or attitudes that others may consider obsolete or out of touch.

Feelings about being too late with an enthusiastic attitude in a situation. Feeling good about outdated topics that other people have grown bored of discussing a long time ago. Feeling good thinking or talking about dead people in enthusiastic ways of whom other people might think is too concerned with inappropriately reliving the past. Feeling outdated and excessive that you believed you could enjoy reliving the past or repeat youthful behavior that is best suited for younger people.

To dream of smaller modern afro represents a thinking style that is acceptable about embracing liking whatever it's doing like it's fantastic. A thinking style that's not outrageous or overzealous about embracing liking something more than someone else.

Example: A woman had a nightmare about seeing a faceless man with an Afro standing over her bed. In waking life, she was pregnant with a baby by a man she hardly knew when she already had 2 children. In this case, the Afro may have reflected her feelings about having a third child by a man she hardly knew being looked at by all her friends and family as embracing an idea of family life that was outdated, excessive, and out of touch with current realities.

Example 2: A woman dreamed of seeing an old friend and he had an Afro. In waking life, this friend has died years ago and she felt stupid trying to feel good talking about him to friends because everyone had gotten over his death years ago and moved on. In this case, the afro may have reflected his feelings about his feelings about being overly enthusiastic about embracing discussions about a deceased person that nobody else wanted to talk about.

The symbolism for this hairstyle is based on the common perception of large Afros being an outrageously humorous outdated hairstyle from the disco era.
