Dear [Name], I hope this note finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express how much I love your hair. From the very first moment I saw you, your hair caught my attention. Its luscious and silky strands seem to dance with the light, framing your face beautifully. The color is absolutely mesmerizing, whether it's a rich chestnut brown, a vibrant fiery red, or a soft and delicate blonde. No matter the shade, your hair always shines with its own unique radiance.

Child-witches of Kinshasa
We have already presented Gwenn Dubourthoumieu’s Mobutu palaces. Here is one of her latest series on the children of Kinshasa. It received special mention from the jury of the Prix Roger Pic 2011, and was awarded the Investigative Reporting Prize at the European Festival of Journalism / Scoop Grand Lille 2011. Between 20 000 and 50 000 children live in the streets of Kinshasa. Organized in gangs, they get by, sometimes thanks to theft or prostitution. According to Médecins du Monde, more than a third of them were chased away from their home in the pretext that they were child-witches and responsible of all the troubles of the family (death, unemployment, disease, etc.). The immense majority of the people living in Kinshasa are persuaded by the truthfulness of this curse. More than one hundred new “child-witches” are so discovered every month and thrown out in the streets. The faith in witchcraft is profoundly rooted in the Congolese culture, but the phenomenon, which consists in abandoning children by accusing them of witchcraft, took a notorious scale only since the end of 1990s. In this immense overpopulated shanty town that is Kinshasa, where 95 % of the population get by below the poverty line, the children are unproductive mouths to feed.

For American photographer, Frances F. Denny, the personal is political: while researching her ancestry, she discovered her eighth great-grandmother, Mary Bliss Parsons was accused of witchcraft while living in Northhampton, MA, in 1674 — just two decades before the Salem Witch Trials of 1692–1693, which were presided over by Chief Justice Samuel Sewall, Denny’s tenth great grand-grandfather.
There is a graceful elegance in the way your hair flows, giving you an air of confidence and charm. But it is not just the physical beauty of your hair that captivates me. Your hair represents a part of who you are. It is an expression of your individuality and personality. It tells a story of the adventures you've had, the places you've been, and the experiences that have molded you into the incredible person you are today. I find myself admiring your hair not only for its outward appearance but also for the way it reflects your inner beauty. Just like your hair, you have a warmth and kindness that shines through and brightens the world around you. I hope this note brings a smile to your face and reminds you of how truly special you are. Your hair is just one aspect of your undeniable beauty, but it is a reminder of all the reasons I am drawn to you. With love and admiration, [Your Name].
