Nigerian gravity-defying HAIR styles from Sixties


Photographer J.D. Okhai Ojeikere's spent the Sixties and Seventies documenting the hairstyles of the women he encountered in his native Nigeria. He snapped over 1,000 photos of these complex coiffures, from subjects he found on the streets, in offices, and at wedding celebrations, as he revealed to My Modern Met.

 

I can see my mum’s hair style among them. Gone are the days when natural hair and black thread did it for our sisters and mums. NATURAL BEAUTY.
