CORNROWS

Description

Cornrows are a traditional African hairstyle that involves braiding hair close to the scalp. The hair is braided in rows using an upward motion to create a raised row. Cornrows can form geometric designs, such as paths or crossroads, in the grain fields, which is where the name comes from. Cornrows have cultural significance and sentimental value for people of African descent. They have been around since 3000 BC, and were originally called canerows or cornrows to mimic slaves planting sugarcane and corn. Cornrows are meant to be a short-term hairstyle, and should not be kept in for longer than two to four weeks. Keeping them in for longer than that can lead to damage and  hair loss. Our Team of professional Braiders has years of experience creating Cornrows for Men, Women and Kids.
