John Boyega: Cornrow Braided Hairstyle
Star Wars hero John Boyega is often seen sporting a fresh haircut and style. He likes to experiment with cornrows and braiding which shows some real barber talent; not a hair out of place and always symmetrical. If it’s not braided, he styles it with tight twists on top and a precise skin fade on the sides.
Why We Love It:
John Boyega is a style icon and effortlessly owns his look. His grooming is immaculate and his hair is perfection.
What To Ask Your Barber:
- Find a barber that is experienced with afro hair.
- Ask for tight cornrows or braids.
- To fade the sides, start at a 0 at the base of the neck and work up.
- The barber should use a razor or clippers (without a guard) to create detailing.
Get The Look
- Cornrows and braids can be low maintenance as they can stay in the hair for a lengthy period of time.
- Afro hair can become dry, so it’s recommended to apply a natural shea oil or butter to keep it nourished.
