Makoma Braids – A Blend of Tradition, Beauty, and Modern Styling

Makoma Braids—inspired by the traditional Makai hairstyle from Elmina, Ghana—are not just a hairstyle, but a cultural symbol. Originally braided with thread to form distinctive horn-shaped styles, this look represents beauty, identity, and status.
