Braids that start thin and gradually get fuller — as if they grow from the root. Why clients love them and how they differ from classic cornrows.
The feed-in technique
Instead of adding extension hair all at once, we feed it in small pieces as we braid. That is why the braid starts thin and natural at the hairline and then gets fuller.
Ghana or feed-in?
The two names are often used for the same thing: Ghana braids is the traditional name for thicker, statement braids close to the scalp, while feed-in describes the technique used to create them. In practice — the same beauty.
Why we love them
- Less tension on the edges than classic cornrows with extensions.
- A flat, neat look that lasts.
- Quick to install — usually 2 to 5 hours.
- Great for an active lifestyle, sport and the summer months.
How many braids?
From two thick braids to around twenty finer ones — the number of rows changes the whole look. Fewer braids mean a faster install and a bolder look; more braids mean a finer, more detailed pattern.
