Characterized by detailed cornrow patterns, often featuring a central braid or part adorned with beads, cowrie shells, and sometimes metallic accents, this hairstyle is traditionally worn for weddings and other ceremonial events. The designs can include geometric shapes and symbols with cultural meaning, and sides may be shaved or decorated for added emphasis. It suits medium to long hair textures Type 3 and 4, providing both style and hair protection.
