Feedin Braids aka Canerows or Cornrows whichever way you pronounce it is one of the best protective hair styles for natural hair, not only that, they’re extremely sleek, stylish and typically cheaper than knotless braids or box braids. Add some big hoop earrings and you’re feeling ‘baddar’ than bad.
BENEFITS OF CANEROWS
1) Low maintenance – can leave your canerows in up to one month before needing to take out and wash your hair
2) Low manipulation – ends of your hair is tucked away so no need to comb or manipulate hair whilst wearing this style
3) Retain length – hair can grow freely due to low manipulation
4) Reduced breakage – minimal tension and low manipulation minimise hair breaking
5) Can easily oil scalp – the parts give you access to your scalp when oiling your scalp
6) Cheaper style – typically cheaper than getting other protective styles such as knotless braids
7) Versatile – can create many different designs with canerows making this protective style very stylish
DISADVANTAGES OF CANEROWS
1) Tangling – if canerows are left in for too long then they can cause hair to tangle when removing
2) Tension – tension is required to create the style and if the stylist braids too tight then this can cause too much tension on the scalp
3) Messy Quicker – the bigger the canerows the quicker they can get messy and untidy compared to styles such as knotless braids
