Originating in Africa, braids were traditional indicators of not just style, but culture, family, tribes and religion, according to We Are Memphis. Because braiding took hours upon hours to complete (and sometimes even days), the tradition of hair braiding was also an opportunity to form community and fellowship.

Although the fellowship aspect is cute, the woman's braid headband is sure to come in handy for a quick hairdo update on the go.

Pupils 'smoke' classmate's braids to pretend they're at the groove smoking hubbly

In another story, Briefly News reported that smoking hubbly is often seen as a more social activity than smoking cigarettes. People gather around a hookah to smoke and talk, which can create a sense of camaraderie. This can be especially appealing to young people who are looking for a way to fit in with their peers.

A video of a group of pupils using a friend's braids to mimic smoking hubbly at groove had social media users laughing out loud.

The footage posted on TikTok shows a young man 'pretending to smoke' his friend's braid as he dances to a tune.
