Mother-daughter bonding can happen through a lot of different activities. But for Shelley and Grace, it happens through everyday braiding of hair. This is their story.
Shelley Gifford has always enjoyed the art of braiding hair. Now, she is getting to try out amazing hairstyles on her daughter, Grace.
Since Grace expressed interest in the practice Shelley had been braiding her hair every single day.
Shelley adorns her daughter’s hair with beautiful French and Dutch braid designs.
The mother spends between 15 to 20 minutes each day braiding her daughter’s hair. If it is too complicated, she simply waits until the weekend.
When they found a social media post celebrating intricate braids, Shelley decided to up her game, creating more artistic and amazing styles.
Grace is very patient with her mum as the braids often take a while.
Sometimes she watches TV while her mum works. She is so used to it by now.
The mother and daughter just enjoy spending this time together. It is their way of connecting and bonding about something they both love.
Grace’s braids always get a lot of attention. It is a massive hit in her school.
Everyone complements her hair. Even strangers just have to stop and appreciate the beautiful braids.
The hair is more than just braids. It has now become a work of art.
Shelley enjoys what she does so much that she is always looking for new ways to challenge herself and make herself better.
Shelley also loves to work with other stuff like ribbons and a few fun accessories.
Grace has become somewhat of a mini celebrity in her area due to her eye-catching hairstyles.
Shelley’s designs are not just pretty but quite fun too.
Kudos to this mummy-daughter team for letting us be a part of such beautiful art.
