A client looks at herself on a mirror after having her hair combed at a street stall in downtown Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Before Haiti's devastating January 2010 earthquake dozens of independent hair stylists braided and colored hair in the capital's Iron Market, the commercial hub of downtown Port-au-Prince. The earthquake damaged the landmark Iron Market and the hairstylists moved their activities to the streets, where they resumed their businesses not long after the disaster.
