What are men’s cornrows?

Men’s cornrows are braids that sit close to the scalp in a variety of patterns—from straight backs to creative designs. Installed on natural hair, this classic style offers a clean, polished look with minimal upkeep. Whether worn simply or with a bold pattern, cornrows are a protective go-to that can be worn solo or paired with fades, undercuts, or a full head of hair. They’re a staple for many men thanks to their durability, versatility, and cultural significance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is hair included?
Cornrows for men typically use your natural hair only. No added hair is needed. If you’d like hair added, you’ll need to purchase your own braiding hair and book our feed-in cornrows option.

How long do cornrows last?
With proper care, cornrows typically last 2–4 weeks. Wearing a durag or scarf at night helps keep them fresh longer.

How do I care for the style?
Sleep with a satin du-rag or scarf and use a light scalp oil 2–3x per week. Want a full care guide? Check out our full care guide →
