afrika bambaataa!!

a special shout-out of praise to my pal missla and her latest conquest: ANOTHERAFRICA.NET which aims to unravel assorted elements of the almighty continent in all its artistic glory. provoking double-takes galore is one particular component of the site, a selection of wild west african portraiture shot by nigerian photographer j.d. okhai ojeikere as headshots prompt us to acknowledge techniques spanning threading, braiding, twisting, cutting and even shaving. bad hair days begone y'all!
