Evelyn and hair braiding

Ok so I went to a boxing day bbq at some british peoples home and I met a Ugandan girl, named Evelyn and she is studying biology at university. So anyway the next day we decided to catch up and she took me to her home and we just chilled and chatted about our different backgrounds and did lots of other things that I wont bore you with. Anyway I mentioned to her that I was interested to get my hair braided to save me washing it everyday. (As we don’t always have electricity often it means we have very cold showers.) So we hunted for ages to find the cheapest place and then we ended up getting her next door neighbor to do it. So here is a photo of the lady that did my hair.


sorry i tried to turn it but it takes too long to download for me to attempt to turn it again.

She braids hair in between working as a police woman in Mbale township. They often have people with guns like hers that just sit outside any shop that sells anything worth stealing.
