Three Girls Walk Into A Black Hairdressers. How Long Does It Take For Them All To Get Their Hair Done?

Tuesday it was decided that the school wasn't really a valuable use of our time (they were doing exams until the next Monday and then were cleaning the school till the 4th of August) so we were recruited at the Women of Glory with Jess and Holly. In went with Holly to her placement but it was her supervisor's birthday so we didn't actually do anything… we sat and they sang some songs and then her supervisor Jojo came and got her hair done and her nails done and then we ate cake (it was cream and brown coloured – looked strange but tasted divine) and drank this ginger tasting drink that was pink. It reminded me of the ginger drink my aunty gives us in Grenada, so I drank it all and they gave me a bottle to take back to the hotel which Mo ended up drinking herself at dinner... 
Before dinner Me, Jamee and Binks went to the hairdressers expecting to spend the rest of the week there and we spent (drum roll please) 1 and a half hours. FOR ALL THREE OF US!! It was fantastic!! So B got her hair braided down in a zig-zag fashion and me and Jamee (sticking to the twin thing [they love twins here like seriously!! They sometimes just give us gifts of bracelets on the street man!! It's awesome!]) got our hair braided just at the front (as in Grenada) still in the twists we have. It cost like 7GHC each! That's like £3!!! I would love to get my hair done back home for three pounds!!! Anyway we were late for dinner but still man, 1 and a half hours!
