Bintou Professional African Hair Braiding

✨ Cornrows are an art form — and these patterns prove it.

For centuries, cornrows have carried meaning far beyond beauty. Across West Africa and throughout the African diaspora, intricate braiding patterns have been used to express identity, community, status, and storytelling. In African American history, they remained a powerful symbol of resilience, creativity, and cultural pride.

Every clean line and geometric design is a continuation of that rich tradition.

⏰ Leaving your braids in too long?

Here’s exactly how long each style should stay in — and what happens to your hair if you go over.

⚠️ If you notice any of these 5 signs, your braids may be too tight — and your hair is telling you to act fast.

• Scalp bumps
• Headache
• White flakes at the base
• Scalp soreness
• Tiny hairs breaking

Don’t ignore the warning signs. Tight tension can lead to long-term damage, especially around your edges.

At Bintou Hair Braiding, we specialize in gentle techniques that protect your edges.
