For Northern Nigeria e dey very rare to see woman dey do dis kain tin, some pipo even think say no woman fit do am.
Na dis wan make am a hard for Hassana as some pipo dey see her as pesin wey dey do wetin dem sabi wit only men for dat region.
As for barbing, a barber must touch di head of a pesin wey e dey barb but Hassana dey break di old culture wey say woman no suppose touch man head.
For Northern Nigeria and for Muslims e no good for man or woman dey get contact wit each oda unless dem marry.
But even wit dis e no stop Hassana from becoming a professional for dis kain work as she tok say her family bin dey do am since her great- grandparents, wey mean say she inherit am from her papa.
