About Peul Braids
Peul Braids, also known as Fulani braids, are a traditional West African protective hairstyle characterized by intricate geometric patterns and cultural motifs. Originating from the Fulani people of the Sahel region, this style often features scalp-parting designs, knotless braiding techniques, and adornments like beads or cowrie shells.
