I decided to see if I could make ifikuti wearable outside of the bedroom and I loved how they turned out. Ifikuti, for those of you who don’t know are the kind of braids that are normally only ever used for setting the hair at night.

I plaited 10 really loose braids and tucked them in. I then took the two braids on the side and pinned them across for a kind of mohawk effect.

Would you wear ifikuti out and about ?
