What's nagô braids?

Nagô braids are root braids, which are close to the scalp. They can go from the basic style to an infinite number of options.Nagô braids have significance in African culture. They symbolize, marital status, social class, family and even some social problem.

N.Braids Story

In Greece, and later throughout Europe during the Middle Ages, the braid was adopted by most women.At the beginning of the 15th century, with the enslavement of African societies, hair played an important role as a conductor of messages.

At that time, hair was an integral part of a complex language system. The manipulation of hair was a way of resisting and maintaining its roots.Black women were in the habit of braiding their hair and making maps on their heads on each other, drawn with braids to find their way in escapes. The symbolism of resistance is very strong in nagô braids.

Who can join the Nagô braids?

The only prerequisite for people with curly hair is to be at least 5 centimeters long, so that the hairsupports the weight of the braids. Whoever has weakened or badly damaged hair, will need to have treatments to recover them before, if not, there is a risk that they will not support and break..

Natural and artificial nagô braids.

Natural nagô braids are made with your own hair. If you have longer strands you can use your natural hair to make the braids. Artificial Nagô braids are made using synthetic fibers, such as jumbo or kanekalon.
