Bebeni is the Twi word for black person. This is as black as we get! We got our hair braided in order to prevent having to wash our hair in the bucket day after day. We think we look ridiculous but the Ghanaians keep telling us our hair is beautiful. Keep your mouth shut if you disagree.
I like it! I should do that with my hair so I don't have to wash and do it everyday!
ReplyDeleteLori, that's a good look for you! Brings back memories of girl's camp, but your braids now look a lot better! I love reading this blog- keep the good posts coming.
ReplyDeleteLori I love it too! You should come home looking like that it would be fun!
ReplyDeleteI am keeping my mouth shut:) JK- I am all for resourceful.
ReplyDeleteWe did that while in Uganda..and the two other girls go scabies from it (not me though)...so watch out. I agree though...it is great not having to wash your hair or mess with it.
