Hair styles are becoming symbol of Somali nationalists

[Hemaal]

Afro only suits some people!

 

[oday1kenobi]

Yes

You do know that cultural traits can alter/change depending on the region and local environment.

It's why there are variations in southern cuisine and language compared to the north. But with the more recent migrations from the 18th-20th centuries (Like the Ogaden/dhulbahante), then it's possible for them to keep some of their traits/practices such as their hair style.

That's true especially in cuisine, south has more variety than north in side dishes and desserts.

The permanent water sources of the juba and shabelle helps wonders.

Do you know if the Ogaden/dhulbahante adopted southern foods?

If they've been there for 100+yrs then it's possible for them to eat like reer koonfur.

Not too much only the way of talking.

 

[Prince of Lasanod]

Not a fan of Afros. I prefer this old nomadic hairstyle of ours:

 

[ethan bradberry]

I can't even grow an Afro

 

[Prince Abubu]

If you're skinny, afros just make you look like a walking tree. They need to work on their muscles too.

 

[Jeesto]

God bless the xerta. Look at the hair

 

[Jeesto]

I can't even grow an Afro

Ma bidaar baa ku salaaxday?

 

[Prince Abubu]

Me neither. Funny thing is I've got a full head of hair. My timo just doesn't grow beyond finger length.

Nah it's just I don't have the right hair texture.

 

[government]

That's nice, my brothers were often discouraged from growing long hair because apparently it's unislamic

Actually it's not unislamic the prophet used to have long hair. The recent its unislamic phenomena came because gaalo used to do it

 

[dhegdheer]

I was told it was because long hair is traditionally associated with girls

I think my mum just made it up since she hates long hair on my brothers

 

[Don]

I am bold but I don't have a bidaar yet. I'm expecting it tho since my father has one
