In addition to showing the stunning styles of hair turban such as Body Wrap and MARE TET, Emmanuelle runs workshops to promote her art. In 2022, she was awarded by CARIBBWIIN which acknowledges artistic work and comprehensive research. In the 1800s, in Louisiana, the Tignon law forced black women to cover their hair whose beauty could seduce white men. These women went around the restriction by adorning their turbans with flowers and jewelry. « Head wrapping » came from this and has become a hairstyle now rightfully considered to be an art. Emmanuelle Soundjata teaches her students precise techniques (straightening, head tightening and wrapping) with different models she created such as the « bamboche » or the designs with flowers with 1 or 2 turbans.
