  • Milena Diekmann creates and models her intricate hairstyles on social media.
  • The 17-year-old German teenager started doing hairstyles at the age of 6.
  • In 2019, she began creating intricate hairdos that resembled macramé, basket weaves, knit, and crochet patterns.
  • This extremely talented young lady, who now has 41,400 followers, dreams of becoming a famous celebrity stylist someday.

Regardless of the color and length, Milena Diekmann can certainly bring life to any hair. This 17-year-old German lady creates hairstyles you don’t normally see everyday.

Milena, a self-taught hairstylist, demonstrates her braiding skills using wigs, which she later models herself. Her intricate, jaw-dropping hairdos look like macramé, basket weaving, knit, and crochet patterns.

“I first started doing hairstyles when I was about 6 years old. But I’ve always been interested in braiding, for example, bracelets. Then, when I was about 10 years old, I started doing more advanced hairstyles,” she said in an interview.

She began experimenting on uncommon hairstyles when she ran out of ideas and wanted to expand her knowledge. Milena soon combined different braiding techniques.

“Most of my ideas come while braiding. I start braiding and then many new ideas come to my mind,” she said.

She applies her skills on wigs, and once she’s done with her design, she tries them on herself. The young artist loves the ‘scissor waterfall braids’ and ‘basket weave braids.’ Although so far, the ‘crisscross basket weave braid’ is her favorite hairstyle… and well, so does more than 22,000 other people.

Milena loves the fact that the possibilities are endless with hairstyles. For her, it is a ‘great way of expression and inspiration.’

She also inspires people by sharing and teaching her techniques to others.

Okay so here’s something different. Yesterday I created this hairstyle. It was a huge struggle. Swipe to see the hairstyles before I tried to fix it. It was very messy and completely out of shape. With a lot of pulling and redoing some parts I was somehow able to fix it. It’s still pretty messy (especially on the left top) and not at all what I had in mind. It’s important to show that not everything is perfect and works out the way we want. There have been so many pictures that I haven’t posted because I didn’t like the hairstyle on camera, the quality was bad or I thought the hairstyle was too simple. I think we should also share our failures more often because that’s what makes us better!💗 _________________________________________________ Wig: @uniwigs

“I personally also find it really relaxing because you can let go of any disturbing thoughts and just focus on the art of doing hair,” she said during the interview.

But with the very elaborate designs she has been doing, Milena admitted that time management is definitely the hardest task for her.

This German lady currently has 41,400 followers on her Instagram account. It really proves that people are noticing and loving her designs. In fact, popular people, influencers, and iconic beauty trademark representatives also admire her work.

Happy new year!!🎉🍀 . 2019 has been an incredible year and probably one of my best years. I can’t believe how fast my page grew. Actually my goal for the end of 2019 was 1000 followers, but at the beginning of 2019 many people unfollowed me, so I set my goal down to 500 followers! And now I have over 20000 followers!😍😳 Thank you so much for your support! I had over 10 collaborations and I even was published in a magazine! I was invited to London for an art project, which you will hear more about in 2020!☺️ I’m beyond grateful for all the opportunities and the support of my friends, family and of course you!💕 .
