Charles says Fulani braids are one of the most requested hairstyles at her salon, explaining that its appeal is in how customizable it is. Her clients love how creative they can be when \u201cchoosing their design for the front of the head or the cornrow part,\u201d she says. Braiders, celebrities, and content creators are putting modern twists on the classic look by experimenting with bright hair colors, beads, and contemporary motifs like heart shapes.<\/p>\n

Thinking of booking an appointment for Fulani braids? Expect to spend between four and seven hours at your salon and between $200 to $800. Yes, that\u2019s a huge range, but like all braided hairstyles, how much time and money you spend is based on the size of the braid and how intricate you want your cornrow design to be.<\/p>\n

For all that money, you\u2019re going to want to ensure your braids last a while. Thankfully, Fulani braids can last up to six weeks with proper care, says Charles. For cornrows that look fresh for as long as possible, you\u2019ll want to keep your scalp hydrated and free of flakes. We like the Flawless by Gabrielle Union Scalp Nourishing Spray for this, because it contains rosemary (an anti-inflammatory) and aloe (a moisturizer) to help keep your scalp feeling fresh and itching at bay, followed by your hair oil of choice (our favorite is the Mielle Rosemary Oil). Also, be sure to wrap your hair with a scarf at bedtime and sleep in a bonnet to preserve the style.<\/p>\n

Since such a wide variety of styles falls under the Fulani braid category, you\u2019ll want to bring photos of the look you\u2019re seeking when you head to the salon. Ahead, some options to screenshot before your next appointment.<\/p>\n
