odumchi: Here's the hairstyle that Ezeagu is talking about, although this is a male.^^^ i wonder why the contemporary ‘black’ african man and woman no longer want to grow and keep their hair. low-cut (men) and weave (women) nor dey let dem see road again  which actually help in perpetuating the stereotype that 'blacks' don’t have hair. hey, culture is not static and evolves i guess, but nice hairstyle on that ovbigbo! |

lol..how can u say that? the kabiyesi hat has a distinctive look that makes it unique. isnt it what the alaafin rocks? hey, i guess it is reserved for powerful monarchs... but that ur ekiti hat looks like a blue version of the igbo red hat which also comes in black.. |

staying on topic... i love this dashiki i bought in accra, i love rocking it with my igbo red hat (nairaland igbos, bite me!). then my kabiyesi cap in damask can never go wrong. and of course, as an ovbiedo kpataki, my long sleeve iwu with the royal swords ada and eben crested on it, is always a killer! |

lol..funny! but here is the deal: -- edo philosophy believes the world will not come to an end, hence 'agbonifo' is a common edo name meaning 'world without end' so all u christian fanatics waiting for the rapture and the end of the world, i know u will have to wait forever. oh, plus the mayans. |

this is the problem when a word from a group is adopted for something over other words from other groups. the group from which the word was adopted starts claiming invention. gele means headscarf nothing more, nothing less. other groups have their words for headscarf. hell, even fulani women tie their hair and im sure they would have a word for it thats if the word has not been rendered obsolete thanks to the almighty gele. but tying hair with damask, im not sure how that started. |

*Ileke-IdI:splashed as how? it wasnt a mix and match but two colors from two headties that were proportionately positioned and tied to become one. thats both genius and flamboyance.. segun gele should catch up. |
