There she is, Miss Chimaltenango

In informational meetings for our annual parish missions to an orphanage in the department (province) of Chimaltenango in Guatemala, people tell of the skills they might bring. One parishioner said she could cut women's hair. There was some concern that this would conflict with the custom in the indiginous culture of women leaving their hair uncut (as you can see in the photograph accompanying this newspaper article).
