hair braider
Makes intricate plaits
A hair braider is someone who braids hair professionally or as a trade, weaving strands into patterns like cornrows, box braids, or French braids.
The term often appears in licensing debates, as many states regulate hair braiding despite its distinction from chemical salon services: She worked as a hair braider for fifteen years before opening her own shop.
