Arlin
My name is Arlin, and I’m 25 years old. Originally from Washington State, I’ve been proud to call Chicago home for the past five years. In my free time, I enjoy puzzles, crochet projects, and painting—creative outlets that bring me joy and relaxation.
I am deeply committed to serving my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, as well as my church and those around me. Braiding has been a passion of mine for the past four years, and I am truly grateful for the gift God has given me to share this craft. Every braid I create is a reflection of that gratitude and dedication.

When I’m not compulsively reapplying my lip gloss, you’ll find me sharing warm smiles and good laughs with my clients.
