Neglect is an understatement! LOL

Hello Everyone!

It's been such a long time since I've logged in. So much has happened over the last 2 and 1/2 years. My hair has grown, I've been though many colors, styles, and life changes. Too much to even talk about at this given time.

One of my most recent accomplishments is one I'm most proud of........I'M A SISTERLOCK(TM) CONSULTANT!!!! Party over here, party over here!! LOL, nah, all jokes aside, I've started 4 people on their journey within the last year, and I've picked up many transfer clients. I am also currently enrolled in hair school. Hoping to graduate in July-August.

As much as I would like to get my blog moving again, my time is being stretched between, school, work, Sisterlockin,' church, me time and family. Maybe more in the future, but until then...........I SEE YA LATER!!!

A year and some change.....

WHEW!, I cannot believe it's been over a year since I last posted. So much has changed since then. Color, length, life style.... A LOT! I had to even think long and hard about my login credentials LOL!!

ANYWHO too much talk about in this point in time. Just thought I'd come and share some pictures of the last year. One thing I will take the time out to say is.....I STILL LOVE MY SISTERLOCKS!! Even more now, than ever!  (Most recent pictures are at the top)

 

2 years in a week!

My 2nd lockversary is just around the corner! I'm excited. I dyed my hair last week, tri-color, black in the back, medium auburn in the middle and light brown in the front. It didn't come out as bright as I planned it would. So I'm going to strip some of the color next week before going on vacation so I'd have some pictures that you'll actually be able to see color in. My last re-ti was April 14th, and I finished it in one whole day!!! WHOOP WHOOP! I can see the growth!!! Liking my length...but will love a couple more inches :)

I'll be back next week with pictures. Had to come and give a little update...TTYL!

Showing growth!

Hey! I said I would post some pictures of my growth a few months ago(lol) slacking! To re freshen your memories, I cut my hair last year(end of March), which is shown in one of my previous posts. I just wanted to show you how much it has grown since then. I dyed my hair in June of last year, so you can definitely tell. These pictures are from December but you'll get my drift :-)

5 months since my last update

WOW! It has been some time since I've last updated my blog O_o lol! A lot has changed within the last 5 months but I'll be brief with it.

I have become a DIY!!!! I have been doing my own sisterlocks now for 4 months, my hair has grown back since I went on my cutting spree (lol) you can tell by my roots. I want to dye them because of that but I'll wait until next spring PLUS, it shows how much my hair has grown. I've done about 3 re-tightenings on my own and I normally do them over a course of 3-4 days. My laziest was the last re-ti, which was about a week ago. It took me all week to finish, only because my arms were hurting and it felt like I wasn't getting anywhere. I said I would go to the shop for my next re-ti but we'll see. I have combined about 3 or 4 only b/c I didn't like how small they were and I know I have combined a couple within the root from my last re-ti...I didn't clip them off like I should have. I'll post pictures with my next update so everyone can see the difference in my hair now....until next time :)

It's been a minute...

Wow, I havent been on here in two months but not much has happened, hair is trying to grow back and I finally dyed it last month, cherrywood, and I love it!!! Cant really see the color in pictures but you can definitely see it in person! You can see my color in professional pictures though, I guess cause of the lighting..Been keeping my hair pinned up and covered up with all the dust, dirt, and pollen around.


Here's a picture of my basket weaves.

1 YEAR!!!

TODAY makes ONE YEAR for my Sisterlocks!!!! Seems like it has taken a long time to get here lol. I can look back at earlier pictures and see a big difference from where my hair first started off. My hair actually looks more like locks since I chopped off 2-2.5 inches from the ends. They weren't thicking or locking but was actually trying to do so further up the lock, so I cut my hair maybe an .5 in from where my hair is trying to bud. The only thing I've been thinking about these days is adding highlights! Need some sprucing up! Nothing has drastically changed in maintenance, still braiding and banding when I washed. I am no longer using the Sisterlock shampoo. I am currently using Soul Purpose Brazilian Jackfruit body gel/shampoo and for my daily moisture I am using Healthy Locs daily conditioning mist, two items that I ordered from Videolocktician.com, and I LOVE them, my hair always smells good and holds the right amount of moisture. All products have natural ingredience, no alcohol! Visit the site and check out some of those products!

I'm currently due for a re-tightening, which I am getting tomorrow. Was pushed back from Friday due to work issues. So I'll be posting before and after pictures maybe Wednesday!

Here are 1st days pics, 1month pics, 6 months, 9 months and the most recent picture
