What are Fulani Braids?

Fulani Braids are a traditional West African hairstyle known for their signature look: a mix of straight-back cornrows with single hanging braids on the sides, and they can be jazzed up with beads or accessories. The braids are installed using added hair for length and fullness, and the look typically includes a central braid or part. Loved for their cultural roots and distinctive beauty, Fulani Braids are a favorite for those who want a protective style that feels both artistic and functional.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to buy my own hair?

We don’t carry an extensive inventory of hair, so clients have to purchase their own. But we’ve created this guide if you need recommendations.

How long do Fulani Braids last?

With proper care and cleansing, you can expect them to last up to 6–8 weeks. But we generally recommend keeping protective styles in for four weeks, to promote a healthy scalp and hair. Learn more here.

How do I care for the style?

Sleep with a satin scarf or bonnet and use a light scalp oil 2–3x per week. Want a full care guide? Check out this article →

Overall, Roxy was very pleasant to work with and I will book her again. With that being said, the online booking system still could need help. The original date selected was not available, but was open online.

I paid for a trim, but didn’t get it and she was over an hour late. Other than she was fantastic.

Latanya is family at this point! She can come to my house at anytime. I always love my hair and I just love her personality. And can we discuss the fact that she is NEVER late! She’s punctual, professional, and overall a beautiful person. My hair is thriving. It’s not easy to find someone with growing hands. I’m soooo glad I found Yeluchi and Latanya!
