Grey Blonde Girl With Cornrows Hairstyle

Outside the African tradition, cornrow-like hairstyles have also been seen in Greek and Roman art, and may have had a similar presence in Celtic culture. Cornrows acquired some popularity among White Americans and Europeans after blonde actress Bo Derek wore beaded cornrows in the popular Blake Edwards 1979 movie 10, and became widely popular once again with the spread of hip-hop culture in the 1990s. Cornrow hairstyles are now often offered to tourists in resort areas of the Caribbean.
In the Asian tradition, Mixed Martial Arts fighters with long hair also often sport the cornrow hairstyle during matches to protect the hair from being ripped off while grappling.
