Cornrows Styles

At Mary Braids, we specialize in cornrows, a traditional African hairstyle that's as much about heritage as it is about fashion. Each braid is tightly woven close to the scalp, forming neat rows that mimic the look of cornfields – that's where they get their name! It's not just braiding for us; it's creating art on your head with intricate patterns and designs. And for that extra zing, we love adding beads and accessories to make your cornrows uniquely you.
