Although making Ghana braids usually requires a special skill, they look very nice and attractive at the end. In addition to this, they last longer and have the ability to stay for months without appearing scruffy (if taken care of properly). The Ghanaian braids have several names. While some call it Banana cornrow, others refer to it as Cherokee cornrow, Invisible cornrow, Ghana cornrow or Pencil braids. Irrespective of whatever name one chooses to call it, one unique thing about it, is that it looks beautiful on everyone regardless of the person’s complexion or the shape of the head. Unlike normal braiding of hair, it utilizes a very unique technique of braiding as it requires continuous adding of hair into a single cornrow. Ghana braids can be worn by women of all ages and social status. They usually come in different sizes, pattern, and combination. While most women settle for long length, a few go for short length but their intricate finish is always superb. Talking about color, there are a thousand and one colors to choose from in the market. Although most women prefer making their hair with single-colored extension, others, especially the younger ones, prefer mixing the colors, thereby coming up with about three to five colors. Truth is, colors are always a glamorous addition – be it the Ghana braids, the Senegalese twist, or other African braids. Some common Ghana braids include:

Ponytail with Thin and Thick Cornrows fishbone pattern Ghana braids – if you wish to try different hairstyles, do not forget to include the fishbone pattern on your list. Center parted long plaits Whirlpool braids – this style is recommended for women who would want to wear a playful hair. It’s not for everybody but mostly for stylish ladies.
