Almost 4-Mos Pic

I know it's been too long since I've written. I am just past 5 months SL'ed and loving them. :) This pic is at the Almost 4 month mark from early April. I am still braiding and banding when I wash my hair which I do once a week. I'm

amazed that I have not added anything to my hair no conditioner, no grease. Before SLs washing my hair natural hair used to be a long process with the deep 30-min conditioners and then combing through it, adding additional leave-in conditioners, braiding it and then blow drying it. SLs are really easy compared to that. So far so good. :)

1 Month Anniversary

Okay, here's my 1 month SL Anniversary, still grinning! I had a little trouble getting the Beau to take pics. He wasn't entirely on board when I made the SL decision. Hopefully he will come around. I told him don't be "jocking" when they get all long and pretty. (tee-hee-hee) :) Actually, I think it's the idea of blogging that he's not too crazy about. So you will see a lot of pics taken by ME!

2 1/2 Months SisterLocked

Whew! It has been awhile since I've written. I am still loving my sisterlocks and enjoying this process of watching my hair do it's thing. I will go for my 2nd retightening in a week or two. I wasn't really used to wearing my hari so short but I've come to appreciate the way my hair looks and enjoy this short style. I don't usually do much to my hair, just wash it (braid & band) every week. Once in awhile I will put caruso rollers in it. I really like the way it looks after I wash it, kind of curly on the ends. After working out it draws up a lot but it's still great to be able to leave the gym and have my hair looking decent after a workout! I love Sisterlocks for that!!

First Day!

I have been contemplating Sisterlocks for about 5 years! I ordered JoAnne's wonderful book back in 2002 and the pages are filled with pictures I copied from the web with 2002 dates! Finally, finally, finally 12/19/06 is my sisterlock birthday! 3 weeks tomorrow. I am so thrilled that I finally did it! I am looking forward to this transformation and sharing it with you!
