African women have different traditional hairstyles to celebrate different occasions.

These Nigerian women were photographed in a variety of African hairstyles by award-winning Sicilian photographer, Salvatore Di Gregorio.

The photoshoot themed “Tales of Beauty” was done with the aim of showcasing the wealth of African culture through beauty and different hairstyles.

Meet Ghanaian-born Nigerian, Rosewood Addo wearing the Sewakoto hair and makeup from Ghana.
They chose their individual hairstyles for different reasons.

Benin-born Blessing Decalov called hers “Low cut” because she wore her hair low.

The strength of these women cannot go past without admiration.

They are only among the few whose stories have been told.

There are thousands of unaccounted Nigerians living in various countries as refugees.
