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.
I had a few criteria for the videos that I selected for this blog series. I searched YouTube for videos of a particular nation and selected one for this series that featured girls and were of reasonably good visual and audio quality. I was interested in showcasing videos from 2019 on, but couldn't find videos from that period of time for a few of the nations that are featured in this series. I particularly favored videos for this series that featured Black female students in schools. Watching those videos show how similar and different schools are throughout the world.
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.
One video is given for each of the countries that are presented in this post. The nations that are represented by these videos are given in alphabetical order. Angola, Bahamas, Burkina Faso, Dominican Republic, Gabon, Ivory Coast, Malawi, Mozambique, and Sierra Leone.

From cocoa fields to classrooms: Preventing child labour in Côte d’Ivoire
UNICEF UK, Jan 5, 2015
10-year-old Halima has only just started school. She is the
oldest student in her first grade class because her parents couldn't afford to
send her to school until now. Halima used to work in the fields farming cocoa,
which is common for children in Côte d’Ivoire. Many farmers simply can't afford
to send all of their children to school and need them to help with the farm
work. Unicef is implementing a child protection programme as well as inviting
farmers to sessions with professional agronomists to teach them to improve
their harvests without resorting to child labour. This means that more children
like Halima can go to school.
