Her name is Milena and she regularly posts her creations to her Instagram account hairstylist.dream, where tens of thousands gather to marvel at them.
They’re incredibly impressive. Here are just a few!

I don’t know how people with this kind of talent even exist, especially at such a young age. When I was 17 I don’t think I had yet figured out how to scramble eggs, I certainly wasn’t out here making beautiful masterpieces of personal style for the ages. Ah, well. Different strokes for different folks, I guess?
What kind of fashion statement would you take on if you thought you could pull it off? What has stopped you so far?
Talk about it in the comments.
