Earlier on we considered the idea that hairstyles can be influenced by more than just aesthetics. Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to find a comprehensive collection of images of Zulu hairstyles anywhere, but below are some of the images that are currently available online. If anyone else has images to add to these please leave your details in the comments section below. We’d particularly like to see photographs of Zulu hairstyles during the 1950 and ’60s.
