Hair

In the Congo, women's hairdo's are part of their dressing.  At first it is hard to recognize our friends, because their hair always changes.  Women wear a lot of wigs and have elaborate braids and do's with their natural hair and with synthetic hair woven in.



These braids last about ten days -- if the women wash them too much, they become fuzzy, so this is not a long term hair-do!
The mystery is how do they get their daughters to hold still for this?
This is the typical man-do -- shaved or short!


More hair styles in the future!
