I vowed that I would not go back to the same Salon where I initially got my hair braided because I was embarrassed about how it ended. But locals, who kept promising me to take me to another salon, never came through on their word. I put my pride aside and walked into the hair salon to request they take my braids out, wash my hair, and give me twists. The total price was $8,000 DJF ($48 USD). I was excited!!
The hair dresser clearly remembered me and instead of scalding at me, she greeting me with a hug and a kiss on each cheek. I wanted to inquire about the check I wrote her, because I don’t think it was ever cashed. Which means my last hair style was free if they don’t hurry up and cash it. But I kept my mouth shut. Was that wrong?
It took her two hours to take out the thousands of micro braids in my hair. Again, I was excited!!
However, in the end, I hated my twists. I might pull a “Amber” and let this hairstyle last for one or two weeks. Stay tuned…
