Humbi girl - Angola

The humbi people were always known for their different hairstyles. This tradition almost totally faded away during the civil war in Angola but since about 2 decades; the tradition has had a revival. This Humbi girl is wearing the well-known "elephant ears" as a rite of passage. From being a girl to becoming a woman.
