MY HAIR FOR THE FUNERAL

 BECAUSE MY DAD DIED 4 DAYS AFTER MY ARRIVAL I  HAD TO CHANGE MY PLAN FOR  THE WHOLE HOLIDAY.

 FOR ME IT WAS JUST THAT I HAD TO BURY HIM LIKE QUICKLY ( 2 WEEKS MAYBE?????/)  DON'T LAUGH I WANTED JUST TO AVOID THINKING ABOUT IT TOO MUCH.

PLUS MOST OF THE TIME WHEN I AM GOING TO SHOPPING I KNOW WHAT I WANT TO SPEND AND BUY. BUT FOR FUNERAL ................
IT IS NOT THE SAME THING ESPECIALLY WHEN MY DAD HAD MADE SOME SUGGESTIONS THAT WE MUST  FOLLOW WITHOUT DISCUSSION..

MY LITTLE NIECE MADE THEM IN ONE HOUR.

IN CAMEROON FUNERAL INVOLVE THE WHOLE FAMILY AND BELIEVE ME IT IS HUGE.
AS WOMEN WE HAVE TO FOLLOW SOME RESTRICTION ESPECIALLY THE HAIR. TECHNICALLY I MUST HAVE CUT OR SHAVE MY HEAD ( ONLY THE WIDOW AND THE DAUGHTERS ).

I HOPE SOMEBODY WILL BE ABLE TO TELL ME  MY REAL TEXTURE.

I DIDN'T WANT TO BUT THEY TOLD ME THAT I CAN WEAR A HAIRSTYLE WHICH WILL NOT REQUIRE A FASHION STYLE.
SO MUST OF THE WOMEN WHEN THEY DON'T WANT TO CUT THEIR HAIR, THEY JUST BRAID IT AND COVER  WITH A TRADITIONAL SCARF,

YOU HAVE TO DO IT AT LEAST 6 MONTHS. I OPTED FOR LOCKS. BECAUSE I KNOW THAT IT WILL BE EASY TO KEEP THEM 6 MONTHS.

THE PROBLEM IT'S THAT I JUST REALISED  THAT MY HAIR ARE NOT 4C SO TO OBTAIN GOOD LOCKS WILL BE DIFFICULT.

 IN THE BEGINNING,  IT WAS OK BUT THE MORE I WASH  MY HAIR  , THE MORE I REALISE THAT I CAN'T NOT LOCK IT PROPERLY.
NEVER MIND I WILL MANAGE TO KEEP IT THAT WAY THE BEST I CAN.

 AT THE END IT IS ABOUT HONOURING MY DAD.

I PLAN TO USE CASTOR OIL,  LEAVE IN CONDITIONER  AND SHEA BUTTER. I ALSO WILL ESSENTIALLY CO WASH IT.
 OF COURSE I CAN GO TO YOUTUBE TO LEARN HOW TO MAINTAIN MY  FRAGILE LOCKS.

BUT I REALLY NEED TO KNOW MY REAL TEXTURE. AGAIN I AM A LITTLE BIT LOST.

AFTER THE FIRST CO WASH MY SHRINKAGE AT ITS  BEST.LOL
