Don’t be carried away by this title a beg. I am simply going down the memory lane of people that have their names written firmly in peoples mind. I wont be too serious about this and I wont go the line of Martin Luther King, Ghandi, Cleopatra, Mandela, Margaret Thatcher but I will simply discuss the ones that have got stuffs named after them.
Let’s start with Bob Marley: 
In Naija for real, when a lady or girl goes carry braids, they call it Bob Marley. Not even dreadlocks is ever referred to as Bob Marley but braids. It has always being called BOB MARLEY! Is this peculiar to Nigeria

Sade Adu: this is another tiny weave to the back hairdo. I hear Sade Adu every time. Just mention this at a salon and every hairdresser knows what it means.
Anita Baker: hmmm an all the time short perm with low cut at the back as it is commonly done in Nigeria
Alicia Keys: “I keep on falling in love…” and boom every stylish girls/women in Nigeria
Other hair styles popular among guys are Evenly King, Tyson etc
The question is what are you known for, what makes you legendary? You don’t have to be rich or famous to be one. Just make a change!!! Touch a life; do something that worth remembering you for. Yeah do something!!!

Interesting... But Bob Marley got me thinking dreadlocks is really the Bob Marley hairstyle. I wonder how braids became Bob Marley? By the way is it true I should wash my hair every two weeks when I wear braids or Bob Marley. I got a newsletter forwarded to me that said I should wash and condition using Natures Gentle Touch herbalblend cholesterol treatment so that my hair will be strong enough to hold the braids if not my hair will break. The newsletter was quite intersting you may want to check it out. Natures Gentle Touch.blogspot.com
By the way has anyone used natures gentle touch herbalblend relaxer? I am thinking of changing relaxers cos am not satisfied with what I am using at the moment.

@Buttercup: I am sure some of these names for hair go beyond Nigeria soil.
@Aloted: the lion king hair was a picture copied from a article I found on bloglines news titled "hair you don't want to take home to mama" or something of that nature. I put it up for effect!
@Charizard: thanks a bunch
@Zena: thanks for sharing my thinking
@Blogger Scheyenne Zigzag : can't remember who sang the song. Just got it via slide.com and happened to like it.
@ Aloofar: you welcome my brova

@ Sherri: yes u r right. I am fien thanks
@Lolu: so they have some of these styles in Rwanda too? They rock o. About the lion king hair was a picture copied from a article I found on bloglines news titled "hair you don't want to take home to mama" or something of that nature. I put it up for effect!Thanks for stopping by yourself
@ Toks: I wonder how dreadlocks is not named after Marley o instead it's braids. Washing someone's braid is good and I think 2 wks is okay. But you sure advertise for Nature touch (lol). I will check it out
@Sasuke: haba men dey make hair like some of these ones too ke. Norrin do u
touching words despite the hilarious delivery! i have cut my hair into Anita Baker, and i'm guilty of Bob Marley as well.
