Litalina Cheri & Maria Nelly
At 23, Litalina, is the mother of three children. Giro, her youngest, is 1 year old. Every three months, Litalina does her friend, Maria Lopez's, hair extensions, which cost Maria 294 pesos, equal to the cost of two weeks’ food for her family.
In the Las Pajas and the Lucky Haitians photo essay.
