@SAMBARRY, is it compulsory for every lady to use brazilian hair, or foundation or gold or all those things?

What is wrong with using only white powder? What is wrong with cutting your nails neatly? What is wrong with not fixing expensive weaves? What is wrong with looking natural as a lady?

All those tips Aisha2 and chillisauce raised are those things that can really help the OP, especially, with the situation she is presently.
FYI, i've never used any powder apart from white powder, and i've never also used brazilian or italian weaves before, not because i can't afford them but i'll rather use the money for other more important things like the meeting the needy and for some charity works.

And i'm still beautiful and attractive o, you can pass me for your younger brother if you see me......... grin grin grin grin grin

Your communication needs work. Eg " I work on the Island" not "works at the Island" these little things matter.

A salary of 35k/month; though something is not something to live by.

Find an alternative job that can earn you a better income.

There are many around.

It can earn you decent income without compromising your dignity; at by joining the network you can earn an additional 50k every month. It can even increase by the month and after a while you just earn residual income without working again.

Have a realistic budget.
Do an excel sheet to monitor EVERYDAY expenses to ensure you stay on budget.
Cook from home and take to work its always cheaper. If you live in a place where you cant cook then opa and coke should be your friend, less than 100 naira and holds the stomach
From you budget you cant afford more than 200 naira food a day stay under that budget. Recharge cards should be minimal less calls more texts. Recharge cards in a week must not be more than 500 Naira. I dont know the transport situation in Lagos but try to get a colleague or neighbour who has a car that can reduce your cost.

Clothes second hand will do for now, clean them well. Hair you get a place where you can braid 2k and keep it for an entire month
I survived under 15k and was still able to save 2 k a month. Its all about cutting our coat according to our cloth
There is a time to jump bus and a time to ride jeep, follow your own times and seasons
If you manage little you will have the grace to manage much

cheeeeii... Auntie u Don suffer gan!! sad all this hardSHEEP only u. na only u waka kam I hope hustle don pay and you're finally riding yo own Jeep smiley

There is nothing God can not do. I earn less than your salary and survive wella. Trekk if you have to, avoid unnecessary luxury and 'buying what you dont need'. Then start looking for another job. Avoid indulging in illicit affairs and borrowing. And my sister, Pay your tithe!!!
