The image depicts an outdoor hair braiding session in Akwanga, Nigeria. A dark-skinned individual, wearing a black short-sleeved t-shirt and blue athletic pants with yellow and white accents, sits barefoot on a blue and green woven mat. Their dark natural hair is partially styled into braids, with the top portion remaining unbraided and lifted. This individual looks directly at the camera with a neutral expression. Behind and to the right, a second dark-skinned individual, wearing a patterned top, is actively braiding the first person's hair, manipulating both natural hair and long strands of dark synthetic hair extensions. A light green comb is visible on the braider's lap. Numerous strands of dark hair extensions are scattered across the mat in front of the seated individual, alongside a dark smartphone with a cracked screen. The ground is a sandy brown, and a pair of white flip-flop sandals is visible to the left. In the background, part of a wooden structure and a blue plastic chair are discernible, indicating an outdoor, daytime setting under direct sunlight.
