Cornrows are a traditional African hair braiding style known for their neat, intricate patterns and close-to-the-scalp braiding technique. This style involves parting the hair into rows and braiding each section tightly against the scalp. Cornrows can be styled in various patterns, from straight lines to complex geometric designs. This protective style helps in maintaining hair health by reducing breakage and allowing for easy moisturization of the scalp. Cornrows are versatile and can be worn alone or combined with other styles like buns, ponytails, or extensions, making them a popular choice for both casual and formal looks.
