“The Afar people, residing primarily in Ethiopia with smaller populations in Eritrea and Djibouti, have unique hairstyling traditions involving butter and sticks. They traditionally use clarified butter (sometimes even cow fat) to style their hair. This not only holds the curls but also conditions the hair, providing protection from the harsh sun in their environment.Thin sticks are used to twist and coil sections of hair, forming the desired curl shapes. This technique, along with the butter, allows for long-lasting and elaborate hairstyles.”
