Our hair stylist and dear friend, Amber Nicholle, introduced us to The Halo Braid 2 Ways a.k.a the milkmaid braid in 2 different styles and we’re lovin’ it! It’s a perfect hairstyle to wear on the streets of NYC, for a wedding, at an upscale event, OR on the beach in Zanzibar! And, this youthful-playful-braid brings out the innocent child in you. How charming is that?

You can wear the halo braid 2 ways: 1st way is the 1/2 halo braid which Feven is wearing….

    1. Hi, Sasen. Thanks for the l-o-v-e. That’s a great question about our hair. We do not relax it at all. We stopped about 5 years ago and girl, it has made all the difference for our hair. In fact, we are totally going to write a post about it. Stayed tuned.

      1. Wow! I’ve never relaxed my hair before, but I always straighten it and get heat damage at the ends/edges. You guys always seem to have it in check!
        Will stay tuned 🙂
