In US news and current events today, Niani Bandele is hairstylist based in Detroit, MI. She hosts a virtual hairstyling class called: ‘A Safe Space for Black Girls That Never Learned How to Braid.’ Bandele has been styling hair since she was a kid. She picked up the skill from her mother, and after spending some time reading about and practicing her craft, Bandele became a professional hairstylist at only 16 years old. She had already been considering to teach a course pre-pandemic, but when nationwide lockdowns began in March 2020, Bandele moved up her timetable as salons were labeled ‘nonessential’ businesses and were forced to close. Bandele hosts the virtual classes twice a week for 1 hour, and runs a Facebook group where the students can discuss what they’re learning. Watch to find out more!
