12 hours!

ワシントンは、黒人が多いです。政府系の機関がたくさんあるとかで、黒人の人も仕事につきやすい環境にあるみたいです。ところで、黒人の女の人は、みんなとっても魅力的な髪型をしています。大抵の人が、時には子供も、髪の毛を編んでいます。ものすごく細かく。で、あたしは、いつもいつも、どうやって誰が編むんだろうかと不思議で、聞きまくってます。今回頭を撮影させてくれた子は、お友達がなんと１２時間もかかって編んだそうです。美容院でもやってくれるそうですが、大抵の人は、お母さんや友達が編んでいます。で、どうやって髪の毛を洗うかというと、洗わないのです。黒人の人は、一般的にも１週間に１回くらいしか洗わないそうですが、編みこみしている人はシーブリーズをかけるだけだそうです。そして、３か月後、髪が伸びるとまた編みこみするんだそうです。おしゃれってほんと大変。

There are many black people in Washington DC. I heard Washington DC has working conditions for black people, because DC has many government agencies. BTW, every black woman has a very attractive hairstyle. Most of black women, even children, braid their hair, very finely. I wonder who braids their hair and how to braid their hair. So I always ask them who braid their hair. The girl of who I took pictures told me her friend had braided her hair for 12 hours!! I heard a hairdresser can braid their hair, but most of them have their hair braided by their mother or friends. Then I wonder how to wash their hair. She said she never washes her hair. I heard the black people usually wash their hair once a week, but most women who have their hair braided, put SEABREEZE on their hair Then, three months later, she has her hair braided by her friend again. I think the fancy hair style is very hard work.
