About Thulu

Thulu is a traditional braided hairstyle originating from Telugu culture in South India, characterized by intricate cornrows that often start at the crown and flow backward, sometimes adorned with flowers or accessories for cultural events and celebrations. It is a protective style that helps maintain hair health by reducing manipulation and breakage.
