Are you following Laetitia Ky on Instagram? Why not! The Ivory Coast based artist and hair goddess makes amazing sculptures out of her own hair, she even has tutorials on how to do so on her YouTube channel. Sculpting looks out of braids for every occasion, here are some of our favourite looks.
For When You Have No Words
Sometimes you just can’t explain a situation. Sometimes you just don’t want to. So why have to? Let your hair do the talking…
For When You Want A Pet But Not The Maintenance Associated With It
Are you a crazy cat lady on the inside, but a busy art gal on the outside? Having a pet is more work than you might think, all the vet bills, food and tidying up after it… But, if you create one from your mane, then all that is taken care of!
For When You’re Too Lazy To Feed Yourself
Hungry? Want a snack but can’t be bothered? Perhaps it’s time to find another solution. Ky did just that by fashioning her mane into a grape carrier. A Grecian goddess for the modern age…
For When You Need Help Taking That Selfie
Sometimes your hands just aren’t long enough for taking that perfect selfie. Don’t have a selfie stick? Use your hands instead!
For When You’re Feeling Fem-powered
Want to show the world your appreciation for the female form? Nothing says girl power like wearing a uterus on your head. Nobody should be able to tell you what you can or can’t do with your body. Make a statement like Ky, who used this look to give her opinion over abortion rights in America.
For The Perfect Holiday Outfit
Christmas may have been and gone, but that doesn’t mean you can’t prep your outfit for next year. Why not take your queue from your Christmas tree, you’re bound to turn heads!
For When Your Specs Need Adjusting
Need to visit the optometrist? Can’t get an appointment, put your hair to work instead.
For When You Don’t Care About Society’s Beauty Standards
Can’t be bothered to shave? Don’t want to shave? Then don’t! Stick your fingers about to the man (it’s usually a man), and follow your own rules when it comes to your shaving (or non-shaving) routine.
For Halloween
Don’t have a costume? Can’t find one you like at the shops? Be totally original like Ky, make a statement with your hair instead!
For When You Need Some Help At The Gym
Working out is hard enough, but what happens when all the weights you were going to use have been taken by someone else? Well my friend, you can fashion your own and get to werk!
