When did Yoruba women start wearing these head ties, is it a Brazilian thing?

LOL, as things modernized, Yoruba women's hairstyle and clothes changed.
No, it's not a Brazillian thing, it's a Yoruba thing.
The clothing styles/ texture of clothes that we wore today were not what we wore before.

Ileke-IdI:

^^^ there's no long hair in the pix.

Anywaz, if black women used to have that kind of long hair, goes to show how westernized products have affected our hair growth undecided

@ Ileke-IdI to answer your question about their hair being woven in or a wig. Hair is very important in the Efik tribe. That is why you will find a lot of hairy Calabar (Efik) babes. In the days of old the Efik women regarded their hair as a symbol of their femininity; therefore, they cherished their curly locks and were forbidden to cut them.  Efik women inherently had very long hair (before perm & relaxers was introduced). The only time that their hair was allowed to be cut was in the event that punishment was being met out. The severed locks were then braided to the ends of a bride’s hair thereby giving it the long lengthy. Golden combs are used as a final decorative touch. Nowadayes, they just use weave to capture the same look smiley

Because some women would rather not use their puzz for the Nigeria's Miss awards. And some peepz got connections wink

Nigerian women re beautiful period. Money to take care of their cosmetic needs is another issue, others have the money.
