What tools did the jamaicans use on their hair?

There are a few different ethnic groups that live in Jamaica, so it is difficult to answer what "Jamaicans" use, as it would be difficult to answer what "Americans" use. Among the residents of Jamaica are people whose ancestry is British, Indian, African, and Asian. As for ethnic groups, some Jamaicans are black, some mixed-race, some Asian, some white. Currently, people of African descent make up the majority of Jamaicans. Assuming you are interested in Jamaicans who are black, you would find they use the same items that are used by other people-- combs, brushes, shampoo, etc. But many black Jamaicans braid their hair (a style sometimes called "cornrows"), and many use colorful beads as part of the hairstyle. Also, some Jamaicans wear their hair in a style called "dreadlocks," which are coils of hair that are intentionally matted or tangled. This style was popularized by followers of the Rastafarian religion.
