About this style
Why book fulani braids at Antwerpen Braiders?
The Fulani look originates with the Fulani people of West Africa: a regal blend of cornrows down the centre, side braids around the temples, and signature beaded or gold-cuffed accents. We treat the style with the cultural reverence it deserves.
Each install is fully bespoke. Our master braider will design the pattern with you — choosing parting placement, the number of accent braids and the metallic finish (rose gold, classic gold or oxidised silver) that best complements your skin tone.
