BRAIDING JOURNAL — April 6, 2025
Dora African Hair Braiding | Madison, WI
Style: Mohack Crochet
Today’s appointment was all about bold creativity and confident expression. Our client came in ready for something stylish, unique, and full of personality. The style of the day? Mohack Crochet — a stunning blend of side-swept cornrows and voluminous curly crochet hair that forms a beautiful faux-hawk silhouette.
Her light skin tone gave the deep burgundy curls an extra pop, creating a warm contrast that was both striking and elegant. The hair caught light beautifully, especially as she turned from side to side, showing off the fullness of the crochet and the neat precision of the braids anchoring the sides. In the video and photos, the color of the curls complements her skin perfectly — the copper-red tones seem to glow against her bright complexion, while the tight partings in the cornrows add sleek structure to the entire look.
Dressed in a bold yellow hoodie with a black abstract pattern, the client looked radiant. The outfit choice alone amplified the effect of the style — bright, full of energy, and completely eye-catching. She didn’t just wear the style — she owned it.
As we finished, she kept turning her head with a huge smile behind her mask, her hands softly touching the curls, clearly loving what she saw and how it made her feel. And her joy didn’t end there — not only was she thrilled with the results, but she was so impressed that she immediately referred two new clients to us right after leaving the chair. That kind of support is the highest compliment a stylist can receive — a true sign that the work didn’t just meet expectations; it exceeded them.
To keep her Mohack Crochet fresh, we recommended wrapping it in a satin scarf or bonnet at night and lightly misting the curls with leave-in conditioner throughout the week to maintain their bounce and shine. The cornrow foundation is solid and should last a few weeks, while the crochet curls can be refreshed as needed to keep the mohawk shape defined.
This session was more than a hairstyle — it was a full expression of beauty, personality, and confidence. It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do at Dora African Hair Braiding in Madison, WI: to make every woman who walks in feel radiant when she walks out.
