Why Women Love Fulani Braids Hairstyle

 A Brief History


In the ancient days it was the women of the tribe who were responsible for weaving the original patterns of the Fulani Braids, so that they could make the knots and weave them into the cloth according to the desires of the tribe. The tribal leader explained to Bates that they always used the same pattern for all of their children. This particular style of weaving was passed on from one generation to another in order to symbolize the continuity of life in the family. The women of the tribe were often responsible for making a new design every three to five years. Each design was said to represent the life and deeds of one family member.



Let's talk a little more about creating braids with threads:


The stylist received 4-6 bundles (the number of bundles depends on the thickness and length of the hair) of yarn, tied its ends together, and then wrapped the bouquet around the big toe and hand to create a multi-wire loop threads. . This loop would then be cut to give a large number of individual strands of the proper length.

Using 4 or 5 strands of yarn at a time, she would start creating the braid. It is quite a talent, the experts wind the thread very fast but with great precision. Usually the braid would be done without gaps, that is, you would not see any hair along the braid. Sometimes even though there are gaps left or you even have threaded sections interspersed with braided hair.

It is possible to include strands of hair so that each threaded braid is thicker and / or longer than it would be without them. When the end of the braid is reached, a knot is tied and the excess thread is cut off. You'll end up with a head full of stiff braids that stick out from your head, then are folded and tied together in different artistic ways:
