The earliest evidence of braiding's existence is often quoted as dating between 3500 and 6000 B.C. In Kemit, or ancient Egypt, the braided style we commonly know today as “box braids” were all the rage. Archaeologists have even discovered that ancient Egyptians of both genders and all social classes (from farmers to the ruling elite) often braided their hair in elaborate and ornate styles—and sometimes used hair extensions.

The earliest evidence of cornrowing dates back to 500 B.C. and was discovered in the ancient culture of Nok which existed in what is now Northern Nigeria. This method of gathering and manipulating hair into neat rows was so entrenched in the Nok culture that depictions of cornrowing by these ancient hair artisans can be found on their sculptures.
