    As a black girl how do you manage to get your hair done since youre away for a long time?

    Girl I was struggling but not really…I have natural hair so already that’s a problem…I would do my own braids or sometimes ask my friend to help me. I had a wig but never wore it so most of the time I had braids or just went with my Afro to work. I don’t mind doing my own hair the only problem is that it takes hours and I want to sleep. But there’s people that know how to do hair onboard so you can pay them or go outside in ports and do your hair at a salon

    Hey, I’m in the entertainment department so I don’t know much about that. I had one friend in the medical department tho and she seemed like she had a good life onboard and they finished work early( unless there’s an emergency of course) they also had access to guest areas and could eat in the guest buffet area)

    7 ай бұрын

    Hey Jessica, I use Nedbank but when you get onboard they give you a new bank card where they pay you your salary. I would send some of the money to my nedbank account to save and since it was an international payment thing the bank transfer charges where $4. I didn’t really have any bank charges the only thing I paid for was the $4 to Transfer money between the two cards. When you work on a cruise ship it’s tax free so we don’t have to worry about that for now🙆🏾‍♀️
