It was on my short list of things to do in SA to get D's hair done. I knew that there would be lots of great places here and they should be much faster(and a whole lot cheaper) then home. On our first day in Southbroom I asked a lady with great hair that worked at the coffee shop where she got it done and low and behold she was a hair dresser! Phindie does hair from home on her days off from the coffee shop and was willing to come to our house which was so convenient. So after about 8 hours (we pushed 7 days on Wed and then quickly finished on Thursday) presenting D's new hair!!
Hoping this style can be left in for a couple of months. Phindie did a great job and was super patient as D needed a number of breaks. We are realizing more and more that labour is super cheap here. Phindie charged us R150 for the hairdo which translates into less then $15. Makes it less then $2 as hour! I'm bringing some fake hair packs home so if anyone wants a new do Phindie showed me how it is done!

Love it! I would love Deborah's hair to look like that! I don't know if we would have 8 hours of patience, though. Today we're going to Ezra's. We'll miss you guys!
ReplyDeleteI keep coming back on to look at these pictures! :) So excited to see it in person, and so proud of her patience!!!
