This Week Throw Back Thursday: by NNFems: 12:09pm On Feb 23, 2017
All-Back also referred to as Cornrows

As elaborate and intricately beautiful as many ancient African hairstyles were, The All-back hairstyle was the simplest of them all. Modernly or internationally referred to as cornrows, All-Back entailed weaving the hair close to the scalp in straight lines from the hairline to the back/nape. It is often done in simple straight lines but has evolved into forming creative shapes or lines whilst still maintaining a row.
This hairstyle is a major throwback for some but for many women and even men, it has evolved into modern hairstyles especially the ones involving braiding extensions. It has also been inculcated into Ghanaian weaving styles and looks great when it is braided really long. For men, it is the go-to hairstyle if you have long hair.

Many celebrities home and abroad have used this look many a time and some have created major trends with it. Remember the time Dija stunned us with the double braided all back style, inspiring many ladies to adopt the same style?
In deed the all-back look is perfect for everyone. It has a way of highlighting how beautiful your face looks and complements your made-up face perfectly. You can also lay out your baby hair with some gel to give a finished look!
