Oh, here's a moment. My hair fits into a ponytail! Hallelujah! And not a moment too soon! It's 90 degrees outside and I couldn't be more thrilled. It's up in a scrunchie. Very soft on the hair. I also tried a new shampoo. I ran out of the sisterlocks shampoo. I had been through the intro bottle and a second bottle. I went searching for the Nizoral, but it was sold out at Walgreens and not available at my local Rite Aid. I landed at the beauty supply place and picked up Dr. Bonners per recommendations on the lockitup board. I found the Dr. Bonners to be MUCH better than the sisterlocks shampoo. I had to dilute it, but my hair feels great and no slippage at all from what I can tell so far. I'll try the Nizoral after this runs out.
