SEC-S30W2: Legends of My Country: (The Headless Hairdresser)
I am very interested in participating in this engagement challenge of season 30, week 2, organized by @marvinvelasquez, where everyone is expected to write about an interesting story to learn from. Here is my other side of the story. Before I proceed, I would like to invite @entity01, @m-princess, and @rossnenye to join me in this contest.

This story is about a young girl called Oroma who braids her own hair. This lady is very beautiful, and everyone in the village is jealous of her beautiful hair because her hair normally shows new hairstyles on a regular basis, and that is how people in the village keep wondering about this legend. All the men in the rural setting like her a lot because she disturbs their minds due to the natural beauty she possesses.
People, especially most of the girls where they are living in the same village, ask Oroma every time about her unique hairstyles. Oroma refuses to tell them because she likes to keep her secrets without telling anyone. So one night, when everyone in the village has quickly fallen asleep, two young ladies followed Oroma home with the intention to discover how she made her beautiful hair most of the time.
When the two girls peeked through the corner of Oromo's home, they were scared to find out she took off her own head by holding it and seated on the floor, where legends state that hundreds of strangers are combing and pressing her hair.
The two girls ran urgently and shouted to narrate to the people in the community what they saw with their own naked eyes. The people gathered together and headed to the Oroma home, and they searched every corner of the house. So in that case, Oroma was nowhere to be found as if she disappeared when she knew something had happened.
Up till now, Oroma has not been found because her hair was supernatural, because when everyone sees her in the streets, they just keep looking at her. It is scary when I read about the headless young lady who does her thing in a different way.
Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.
