this is an amazing idea. For those who didnt LISTEN she presented a problem: stylists getting arthritis, and we customers spending HOURS sitting there.
Her invention will NOT put stylists out of job, because they will remain as stylists, the robot will finish the job. This job being, finishing the braids, which is a repetitive proccess for EACH braid. Sounds amazing! It saves time. Stylists are able to take MORE clients, than 2 clients per day. This way they make more money, we as customers save time. And hopefully the hour rate decreases for us too.

That is a beautiful innovation. And no it will not take away jobs, they will help stylists do more in shorter durations with the help of robots. Remember they get to start the process then Halo Braid finishes it.
