Habesha’s actually have their own hairstyles, Fulani braids are well, Fulani braids and box braids are from ancient Egypt.

do we have our own hairstyles?

I would say we probably share the hairstyles of our Cushitic cousins. The oromo and afar etc.

No we don’t. We don’t have any hairstyle that is unique to us.

Damn it! What’s the use of me rocking jumbo braids and Bantu knots then wallahi stupid ancestors who told them to shave half of their hair off as a fashion statement

Post it in the NSFW section if you have colonial photos that haven't been post it before.

Only teens were getting their head shaven. Adult Somali women used to grow their hair as long as they get.

Nice and all but some of us already have long hair (like me) so having a hairstyle is really useful because taking care of my long hair is a burden
