Here are some Bantu Knots & Barrels Locs hairstyle ideas to inspire you.

THE Bantu Knots (Bantu Knots in French): This hairstyle involves creating buns. The strand of hair in each bun is twisted around itself in a spiral and secured. The hair strand may also be braided or dreadlocked before being twisted, depending on the origins and styles. Like most African braided hairstyles, the patterns are fractal. There are different styles of knot separators (square, triangle, wave, etc.) and different knot shapes (conical, tube, flat, etc.).

The " Bantu Knots " hairstyle (in English) is also called "Zulu Knots" (in French), "Tufi ya ntaba" (Goat dung) in Lingala (a Congolese language), "Matobos" in Cameroon, or even "Chou," "Kaka kabrit," "Kaka mouton" depending on the French-speaking Creole dialects of the Antilles or Guyana. There are a multitude of names depending on the language.

The hairstyle known as "Barrels" consists of wrapping braids, locs or twists/vanillas/corrugates in elongated/close-knit/lying ways into rolls.
