Portrait of a young Wodaabe woman with the tribe’s characteristic good looks and self-possession, with the traditional hairstyle and veil.
I’ve seen photos where they have five or six of those large earrings in each ear, and photos where there are fewer, or none. I’m not sure what determines the amount of jewelry and piercings. Could just be personal preference.
This woman also doesn’t seem to have facial scarifications. She may be from a more modernized family group.

Do you know of any new fashion and beauty trends that might have stemmed from Africa?
