At first reading, I thought she used her own hair as a tourniquet. Now that’s resourceful! Reread it, oh, it was her hair tie! Still resourceful. Smart lady.

Some people are pretty resourceful. Several years ago there was a bad accident in front of me. A young boy in the car had a nasty impact wound on his head that was really gushing. I managed to stop the bleeding with pressure. Someone I never saw handed me a freshly opened bag of white cotton T shirts. Great improvised compresses. Someone was bring then home from shopping I suppose and repurposed them.

Feminine hygiene pads are outstanding for that purpose as well.
