PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE
The YouTube videos that are showcased in this five part pancocojams series focus on some hair styles that are worn or were worn by Black females in an African nation or among females in the African Diaspora. In selecting African nations, I've limited my focus to countries in West Africa, East Africa, Central Africa, and South Africa. I didn't include North Africa because of the difficulty finding YouTube videos of females who didn't have their hair covered. I apologize if this series doesn't focus on your country.
The videos in each post in this series are given in alphabetical order, except for Video #1. The geographical continent and region for each nation is given in parenthesis after that nation's name.
None of these YouTube videos have "hair styles" as their theme. However, I'm using these videos to document hair styles that some Black girls wore/wear in those countries when those videos were produced.
In addition to documenting certain female hairstyles within a specific nation during the time periods noted in this post, these videos can serve as an introduction to certain nations. The content of these videos can also be viewed for aesthetic purposes (particularly those videos that showcases the singing, music, and/or the movement routines of the choirs/school student assemblies).
These videos aren't meant to suggest that the way/s that any population wear their hair should be an issue of concern or was/is one of the most important issues of concern for that population or for other people regarding that population.
Click the "Black hair styles throughout the world" tag that is given below and/or the other tags that are found below for more pancocojams posts on the subject of Black people's hair styles.
