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 :)

7months

Hiya! Thanksgiving Day will mark my 7th month of having my lovely Sisterlocks! All I can do is smile! Time is definitely flying right on by! before I know it, it'll be a year! I can see some growth in my hair now, not much b/c it still shrinks a lot but it is noticeable. I took pictures of my hair the other night before I went to sleep so I look really tired lol....In love with my hair more now, than before, I have some of the thickness I hoped I would get. My loctician said that my hair would more than likely stay curly at the ends verses closing which I have no problem with. I love my lil curly q's lol.... Going to cut this short b/c I should be working right now lol....Until next time folks!
These pictures are from my re-ti 11.19.2010






This last picture is from last Tuesday(11.15.2010) when I washed my hair...was 6 weeks since I had a re-ti....you can tell by my roots!

2nd Re-ti!

Hello All! ! Time is moving right along : ) My re-ti went wonderful on Saturday, so happy to see my parts again lol....my hair is growing FAST, my consultant says, Very Happy about that! I feel some expansion closer to the root, towards the middle to the end, not so much. This re-ti took a little longer than the last..4 whopping hours! It wasn't too bad, we talked and giggled the whole time. I think it's about time i do a comparison of my 1st week to present....
