It depends exactly on where in the world the Samoans you are referring to live. For eg, if you mean Samoan lifestyle in Samoa, then it would be fair to say that the lifestyle is rather laid back. Living off the land (growing plantations/crops) is a tradition greatly reverred by Samoans. There's alot of Western influence in Samoa now so there are the latest technological advances coming into play (i.e, internet, mobile services). Samoans also pride themselves on being very religious so church-going (as mentioned by the first answerer) is very wide-spread.

Samoans do not typically have afros in the way that is commonly associated with African hairstyles. The hair texture among Samoans can vary, but it tends to be straight or wavy rather than tightly coiled. However, some individuals may style their hair in ways that resemble an afro, particularly if they have mixed heritage. Ultimately, hair styles among Samoans can be diverse and influenced by cultural practices and personal preferences.
