Almost 2 Years




Well folks, on the 26th and 27th of this month I'll be celebrating my 2 yr. mark. It's been a sometimes frustrating, but also exciting journey indeed. Do I regret making this decision to get Sisterlocks? Not in your life. This weekend I retightened my own locs, and it only took me from approx. 7 pm, to about 6 am. the following morning, with a break of about 2 hours in between. Yes I stayed up all night doing it because I wasn't sleepy. Anyway, even with the clipping of my permed ends, I have experienced so much growth. A few locs have sealed, but of course majority have not. I was initially told my Therza 2 years ago that it would probably take 3 yrs. to be fully loc'd. Well looks like she was right. It's ok though because I love my hair. I love the ringlets on some ends, the fuzzy ends of others, but those straight permed one's will be defeated! LOL. Anyway, I hope that my journey over the past two years have inspired others to take that leap, especially those who start off will a lot of permed hair like I did. I think I understand myself and my hair so much more with taking this journey. This journey has also sparked other journey's too, like my weightloss. So far I have lost 40 lbs. since the end of February this year. I feel liberated by my hair, and renewed by my size. God bless you all and don't forget....



Love, peace, and no hair grease.
