What Are Tribal Braids
Originating from West African cultures, tribal braids are a form of protective hairstyle deeply embedded in both African and African American traditions. These braids, typically crafted by integrating extensions into your natural hair, can maintain their allure for a span of four to six weeks.
The allure of tribal braids comes not just from their intricacy but also from the fusion of diverse braiding styles and adornments such as beads, shells, and rings. Some of the most iconic tribal braid styles include the Fulani braids, Ghana braids, and box braids.
The birthplace of tribal braids can be traced back to the Fulani tribe in West Africa, where these braids were more than just a hairstyle. They were a celebration of their culture, traditionally designed as middle-parted cornrows that ran straight back from the forehead, often embellished with beads. Overtime, this look has seen numerous transformations.
Braided hairstyles held a distinctive place in many African tribes, serving as a unique tribal identifier. The patterns and styles of braids could reveal a person's tribe, age, marital status, wealth, societal standing, and religious beliefs. Hence, braiding was more than just a hairstyle-it was a social art, a tradition that continues to thrive to this day.
