Description

This portrait captures a Black woman from behind, showcasing an elaborate and sculptural braided updo styled by Nikki Nelms. The dark dreadlocks and braids are meticulously pinned into a high volume and woven with various small metallic and gemstone charms, including stars, hoops, and colorful stones. She wears a satin teal off-the-shoulder garment that drapes gracefully across her back. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the fine textures of the hair and the reflective surfaces of the ornaments against a neutral grey-blue seamless studio background.
