Hi Everyone, Please I’m looking to book a flight to Orlando Florida and I need an airline that doesn’t require transit visa, with the shortest flight time and the least amount of stopovers. I don’t know if anyone can be of help. Cost is not really a problem.
Well if cost is not a problem, you should be able to google the biggest airline in your country and book a flight . Or the airlines that fly international in your country

In Arizona, you don’t need a license to braid hair. Arizona has a good amount of Black Americans and in most of the states, hair braiding runs from $50 all the way up to $300. You can do really good braiding hair in Arizona. In South Dakota, you need a cosmetology license to braid hair but there aren’t many Black people so business wouldn’t be as good as Arizona.
You can get many clients on campus in Arizona. If you’re good, your customers like you, and you’re available regularly on weekends, they’ll comeback to you over and over because dependable braiders are hard to find.

Just to correct that notion about Arizona. Yes you do need license but yes you can work your braiding and run cash business nobody’s chasing you so OP should be fine.

Majority of blacks in Arizona are concentrated in Maricopa county (ie Phoenix and its suburbs), Flagstaff is a touristy and college town, the black population is a handful. I’m assuming his/her campus will be in Flagstaff.

Flagstaff is good, chill and you’d enjoy it out there, and it snows like crazy just any other cold state. But the black population is only a handful unfortunately… you will probably meet some on the campus and don’t sleep on getting white client too if you choose NAU.

Good luck to the OP

Hello everyone,
Please are international students allowed to make hair for people as side hustle around my school

You’d be just fine in AZ, as long you’re careful with your clientele. Generally a license is required but you will be just fine running your side hustle without issues.

I’d rather prefer you ask openly so it may be beneficial to other folks. But if it’s very personal then it’s okay to mail.

You're wrong. Arizona is one of the states that does not require braiders to be licensed. The information is on the cosmetology board’s website.
You can also read about the successful lawsuit that stopped the licensing requirement here—

If she’s only braiding, no license is required.

How long did it take the international affairs office of SDSU to send you the form i20 and was it soft or hardcopy?

You can send a message to me so that I can hive u his details

Please I need clarification about this Ethiopian airline free luggage rule.
Can't I use a duffel bag to carry my things? Must it be a box?
The duffel bag is lighter and contains more things and on their website I'm seeing that luggages must be a box 55x23x44 or else it won't be checked in or loaded in the aircraft or something.

I think Delta airline is your best bet. They have direct flight from Lagos to Atlanta, and then they connect you to wherever you going to In the United States.

Living abroad is great

Especially with the exchange rate of dollar to naira hitting the roof.

But, it has its challenges too.

Personally, I will jump at any opportunity which allows me to earn in dollars from the comfort of my home in Nigeria.

Rather than travel abroad.
