Patterns

But cornrows are also attractive and easy to arrange in geometric patterns, including swirls and zigzag patterns and even patterns that spell out words or show off logo designs.
Cornrow braids of all styles can be created by an experienced and knowledgeable stylist and can be attractive and easy to maintain for men, women and even children.

Choosing a Stylist

Before you decide to have a cornrow style with your own hair be sure to talk to your stylist beforehand. A good braid stylist will have a photo portfolio that shows their abilities and the different styles they are comfortable with.

Make sure that your hairdresser know how to braid cornrows professional

Make sure that when you hair is braided into cornrows, it is not braided too tightly or too close to the scalp, since this can result in hair loss and even hair breakage.
Also, ask your stylist for recommendations on different styles that will show off your face and can even be worn in different ways. For example, if your hair is long, do you want it braided so that you have the flexibility to pull it up into a pony tail or some other updo?


Care for Your Cornrows

Cornrow styles are relatively easy to care for. Wash your hair regularly, taking care not to rub the braids too vigorously. Washing your hair is largely about keeping your scalp clean and in good condition, so use a mild shampoo.
One of the problems with cornrow styles can be the braids being pulled out of shape. One way to avoid this is to wear a scarf or bandana around your hair when you sleep.
Cornrow styles can be worn for several weeks before they need to be restyled and put into new braids. The great thing about cornrows is that this means that you can change your style every few weeks, rather than having your hair cut and styled and then being stuck with that style for several months while you wait for it to grow out or for your hair to be in condition to color it again or for a perm to grow out.
