Originally the head-wrap, or turban, was worn by both enslaved
men and women. In time, however, it became almost exclusively a female
accessory. However, it is believed that African cultures used head wraps before
the days of slavery so that men could show off their wealth and the level of
their social status and so that women could prove that they were prosperous and
spiritual.
In this age, the whole world wears headwraps; they are a great fashion statement & fashionable trend.
I love African head wraps, I truly think they are very
beautiful and the vibrant colours make me smile; the colourful wraps also kept a person eyes to the face of a woman J
Be happy, do the best you can, be good and kind. x
