African traditional headgear – head wrap bun. It is so very easy to make, looks pretty, and is rather practical.

There are dozens of different African headtie drapings. Some are traditional, others are creative modern designs. Here is one of them. It seems like the headdress is wrapped haphazardly but, in truth, it is done meticulously to achieve this look.

Beautiful pregnant woman in African traditional attire. She’s wearing a matching dress and turban with African print and massive jewelry with coral beads, also in traditional style.
