Trae Howard creates some of the prettiest special-occasion styles out there. We love seeing the work she creates for her bridal clients, and the experimentation she explores on her mannequins.

From boho to braids and bridal, Howard showcases her skills on her @traehowardhair Instagram platform, and includes details on how she achieved the looks and what products she’s loving.

In this gallery, see some of our favorite styles created by Howard, who Is based outside Nashville, Tennessee, and then go check out more of her work @traehowardhair to see why we named her part of our MODERN SALON Artist Connective.

2018 started out tough for me but it bloomed into something AMAZING. I’m so thankful for the community I’ve found on here with other artists who have become friends, & for all the brides who have trusted me with their hair . The great @danielmasonjones posted a great question about thinking through what 3 words you want to speak into your 2019... and what came to my heart was “believe I belong...” @modernsalon & my new Artist Connective Fam you have played the biggest role in helping me believe in myself! I am so excited for what adventures await our 2019! With a grateful heart... HAPPY NEW YEAR!🥳 . . . . . . #happynewyear2019 #modernsalon #pinkpewter #pivotpointintl #samvilla #beautylaunchpad
