Hairy dance in honor of Trump

This is a traditional dance of Gulf Arab women, known as Al Hair (or Al Khair), widespread in the United Arab Emirates and other Gulf countries.

In the context of the visit of US President Donald Trump, this was a sign of respect – a display of traditional Emirati femininity and hospitality.

It is performed by women dressed in long white or black dresses. The focal point is the rhythmic movement and waving of long, loose hair in harmony with the music.


The movements are soft and wave-like, with head rotations that create the characteristic "hair dance" effect.

It is often performed during ceremonial welcome ceremonies, cultural festivals, and to honor special guests. /Telegraph/
