Bad Hair Day number 3...I'm resigned to eternal curliness. 96% humidity is not a girl's best friend. The Argentine ladies seem to thwart this descent into frizzy dishevellment effortlessly. There are DAILY visits to the hairdressers, I've noticed. Just 50 metres from the door to our apartment block there is a salon with (I'm guessing) 40 places..and it's very busy in the mornings between 8 and 9. A wash and set costs only 9 pesos..that's less than two pounds sterling. I may become a convert soon...if I can master a few set phrases. I'm helplessly babbling in Italian at the moment, but it's being very graciously received.
