Here for the research poured into this. Our male ancestors kept and styled their hair in so many beautiful different ways, the bald culture nowadays was inherited from colonialism and not our culture.

your art is beautiful and I think plaited hair for men in Nigeria was never a tattoo to begin with

Your art is really beautiful just so you know. I know you’ll blow in no time. Just be consistent and be using some sounds. I’m also an artist but I’m not really consistent on TikTok yet. I’ll be supporting you from the sidelines 😌

I wonder what the styles meant culturally to the Edo back then do we know? Btw I also found out your people have an awesome tattoo culture Iwu I’m not sure if the bronzes depict this.
