Jalaia Evans

My name is Jalaia Evans. I was born in Atlanta, Georgia, but I am currently located in Riverdale, Georgia. I am currently a cosmetology student at the Elaine Sterling Institute. I have been braiding for about 4 years, though I am looking foward to becoming more experienced in other hairstyling techniques. I began braiding around the time I was in 7th grade. I finished completely braiding my hair and loved the end result. I would then continue to braid my sisters hair. As I continued to braid I became better and I noticed that I loved to do this. I want to continue braiding in the future and I would also love to create a braiding hair brand. I would also love to learn other techniques such as wigs, quickweaves, and natural hairstyling techniques as well. I plan to own my own salon and further my education so that I can keep up with all the recent hairstying techniques throughout generations.
