Ivory Coast Artist Builds Powerful Sculptures From Her Hair

 

There are lots of hairstylists out there. But there aren’t too many hair artists out here. Mastermind Laetitia shows us the difference with her fine-tuned hair sculptures.

 

Her hair creations might look whimsical at first, but they actually make deeply political statements, expressed in an unbelievably imaginative way.

 

 

Her passion for hair braiding started at age five, and developed as she got older and discovered it as a way to explore and discover her African roots.

 

Laetitia fights violence with her hair art, turning them into ponytails shaped like pistols, or sculptures that speak volumes about gender equality.
