Philosophy
Services are offered for ages 5+, all genders, all textures and will be delivered in a culturally respectful way. Natural hair must be at least 5" after being stretched.
Hair braiding is not only an esthetic, It is a cultural fixture.
Our stories, embodied in traditional skills
A tool for community building and bonding.
Protective, invocational, practical, and pretty
I braid for those who want to praise their bodies. I braid to honor rites of passage for those moving through milestones. I braid as an act of encouragement for those learning how to own the space they take up; and as an act of love for those defending their bodily autonomy. I braid as an act of resistance against forces that benefit from our isolation and as an act of celebration for our strength in togetherness.
For you, me, and for us.
