For Black Military Servicewomen, a Friend on the Outside
Davette Mabrie has kept military servicewomen in natural styles that meet uniform requirements for nearly 30 years. In 2018, the U.S. Air Force lifted a restriction that previously banned servicewomen from wearing dreadlocks, following a wave of similar policy changes throughout the Armed Services. Now, Davette can style clients like Airman First Class Emoni Covington in once-banned dreadlocks. And it feels like freedom.

In Hawaii, there's no better way to say and share aloha than with a lei. The floral craft, which dates back to traditional times, may seem straightforward to outsiders, but it comes in many forms created across the Islands. Travel to the island of Oahu, where three master artisans want to introduce you to the lei's vibrant past and thriving present.
