HaloBraid Brings Tech to Hair Braiding

A new startup, HaloBraid, is revolutionizing hair braiding with tech that could slash hours off the process for both stylists and clients. Founded by engineer Yinka Ogunbiyi during the pandemic, the company raised $7 million to develop a robotic braiding assistant—designed to tackle the physical toll on stylists and the massive time drain for clients. By blending material science and robotics, HaloBraid aims to make textured haircare faster, easier, and more enjoyable, bringing its device to salons later this year.
