[QUOTE]Originally posted by Askia_The_Great: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by BrandonP: [qb] Bumping this because there is one thing bugging me about ancient North African hairstyles. If wavier hair textures are supposedly the indigenous North African hair texture, what's with all the ancient depictions of Egyptians, Libyans, and Numidians with what appear to be tight braids or dreadlocks? Aren't those the hairstyles supposed to be damaging to non-4C hair? Even allowing that many of the Egyptian self-representations show the subjects wearing wigs, I have a hard time believing they were importing all those braided or dreadlocked wigs from sub-Saharan sources.

But more importantly those people rocking those hairstyles could've had hair similar to modern day Horn of Africans who also braided their hair but not as tightly as other SSA especially West Africans. Still less damaging to a person with type 1 or 2 hair... [/QB][/QUOTE]
