Waale awoowyaden had amazing styles those days. Now days everyone gets lame hair cut prescribed by some Saudi Wahabi Sheikh. The Afar are the only ones who reserved this culture. KUDOS to them. What you see on the hairs of awoowyaden is nothing but butter from our adhi (subag).

By the way the pictures and the tribes are real. I didn't make it up just for the sake of it.

[ZubeirAwal]

I reserved the hairstyle sxb, 18 months and growing.

[LeJusticier]

I love that semi-barbarian style

[Chinaman]

I remember when Warsame101 first posted those pics a very long time ago without identifying who the men are, he even edited out the Qabiil captions at the end of the pics. The thread was hilarious.

Ever single member was distancing themselves from the pics, some claiming they were Oromo, others like certain Somalilanders were claiming they were some obscure walanweyn tribe all because of things like their attire, hair etc

Now all of a sudden after their Qabiils were uncovered, certain people have made a whole 360 on regards to the pics. Somalis are funny lol
