Here are some Lambou & Boules braid hairstyle ideas to inspire you.

Lambou braids involve interspersing cornrows with sections. Between these sections, the braids are woven in a style similar to regular loose braids, but with more cornrows. These braids are also characterized by horizontal separations that are often nearly identical in both distance and quantity.

Lambou braids are a cultural and protective hairstyle that allows for a multitude of looks. The braids protect and organize the hair in cold and hot weather. They also help prevent tangling, especially for curly and kinky hair.

Braids have a multitude of names depending on the language, culture, country, etc... here are some examples of names:

  • "Lambou" in the Comoros Islands, Mayotte
  • "Lambo Miditra" in Madagascar
  • " Tuusidow" in the Saramaca language in Suriname and Guyana
