Amasunzu is a traditional Rwandan hairstyle that has a rich history and cultural significance. It was traditionally worn by both men and women in the Rwandan society, and it held deep cultural meaning.

Over time, however, the popularity and practice of Amasunzu declined due to influences from Western culture and the introduction of more modern hairstyles. It was only in recent years that efforts have been made to revive and preserve this traditional hairstyle.
