So Far So Good

Its been a few days since I finished my locs, the install was like 61 hours.....my hair is going to be different which is always the case in dealing with my hair. First of all when I locked it was VERY LONG.....I had so much hair....they are pretty small....a lady with SL's said to me..."I have never seen them that small"....so Im thinkng I might have micros....but I doubt it....they are supposed to swell.....with all the being said...they are so CUTE!!!! I spray my hair in the morning with lemon and water...it curls up....I spray my scalp it feels great! I haven't been itching like I thought I would.....I washed them the same day she finished them....I treated my scalp with ACV and Nizarol Shampoo....I also used the SL shampoo...but I have dandruff so bad I have to use something else......Well I will be back next week.......

My Journey To Sisterlocks

On March 18, 2010 a new journey will begin in my life. I am going to get Sisterlocks and I am so excited. I love my big curly mass of natural hair, but I am ready to take this journey. I have been through many hairstyles, including regular locks; this time its different…The connection that I have with my hair is amazing. When I was doing research for my film New Growth, I came across so many beautiful women with natural hair who had taken these wonderful journeys and wanted to share them. One common factor that I found in all of these women was the courage that it took to buck the standard of beauty. These women, like myself, questioned the standards of beauty and decided to change it for themselves. I was so happy to connect with so many beautiful sisters who understood how I felt in relation to what was considered beautiful in our community. Today, close to ten years after my journey with natural hair began, I am taking another bold step toward true freedom. I dont know what I am in for, but I am ready to take the ride. Hopefully I will be able to update my blog with pics and progress!
