I don`t have statistics but hair straightening in cities is common
and also the wearing of wigs, in Nigeria I saw that hair plaiting was
important, one woman even had her hair plaited in the shape of a
stadium where the All Africa games was being performed. I was told that
a woman does not feel smart in Nigeria if her hair is not plaited!
Other women wear head ties.
No idea of the cost.
Some tourists in Kenya have their hair plaited and often have beads in
their hairstyle.
