I think that was cool how they could do the types of hair braids and styles. I think they use math by knowing how many hairs they should get to make the braid. Making braids is quite hard to do , so it's cool how they can just do it in a short amount of time with I also think it involves math withomework the time that they take.

I have learned that cornrows have been passed on for generations and even though someone invented straight hair for African Americans they still passed on. I also learned that cornrows were made a really long time ago.
