“Mumuhuila girl with umbrella – Angola. The weather was so hot! She made her traditionnal hairstyle made of cow dungs, herbs, oil, and fat, to come to the weekly market in Hale. A way to show the other people the beauty of the clan. It works!
Mumuhuila have a strange costum. Usually, i ask the name of the people for my pictures. In Mumuhuila, you must not ask the name of the people, and people won't tell their name inf ront of others. Quiet surprizing and disturbing!
The number of big dreadlocks has a meaning: 3 dreadlocks means there is a dead people in the family. 4 to 6 dreadlocks is the normal style”. (Photo by Eric Lafforgue)
