Teaching the Art of Hair Braiding

Written by on

In March I was contacted by a mum who wanted to learn how to braid her daughters hair. A series of sessions were designed for her. At the end of the teaching she forwarded me the following:-

“I wasn’t lucky enough to have someone in the family to show me how to plait and until I had my daughter I didn’t really have a reason to learn. I not only wanted the skill to be able to keep her hair tidy but began to feel that the tradition of hair braiding on natural hair is an important part of our heritage that I wanted my daughter to be proud of. Leona really believes in keeping this tradition alive and is passionate about natural hair and that’s what makes the difference with her tuition. She is patient and encouraging and because of this I’ve learnt and improved rapidly. I’m so glad I found Cherub Braids – a big thank you for all your help”
