Braid Out

Feeling artistic...

Just liked this photo.

1 Year, 9 months Y'all!!!

Getting Sisterlocks was hands-down
the smartest hair decision I've ever made in my life. I feel so absolutely beautiful in them. It's an amazing feeling and every month just gets better than the previous one.

Naomi Campbell Bald Spots

Someone should reach out to her about sisterlocks. I had no idea weaves over the years could cause you to go bald.

Retightening: 19 Months

Long, thick hair is hot. I love it, but it's hot. I'm proud to have made it this far and still be login' my locs.  I saw a sister the other day with 7-year-old locs. Got a case of loc-envy. But all is well and they are looking' good!

Grey Hair Quick Color Fix

Okay, so I can't color my hair yet because my ends haven't quite sealed up. That's been driving me crazy because right at my temples my baby hair is turning grey. It's not locked, just that loose hair that's really fine and frames my head. Well, I found a quick fix. Streaks 'N Tips in Burnt Brown -- $6 at the beauty supply store. Yeah, yeah, I could be worried about it getting into the loc. But I just needed three quick pumps and that's it. Now my temple grey is gone and I spared my hair the drama of major coloring. Sure, it will be gone when I wash it. But I just feel so much better not seeing that grey!!!

June 11 Retightening: 18 months -- should I color?

You know, my hair just feels...HUGE. I mean, it's HOT outside and I've got mounds of hair for days. So, the photos above give you an idea of how much there is, how thick it is, and how long it is. That's my day look. When I get home from work and on the weekend, I'm sportin' the look below. It's just too hot, y'all!

The biggest thing on my mind right now is color. I've got the "I'm over 40 and grey hairs are poking through my dark brown hair" drama. I saw BlaqKofi's blog and she recommended Naturtint.  My hair hasn't completely locked so I really should sit tight, but I'm ancy. I've thought about that spray color stuff, but then my sister says it rubs off on your pillow at night. YUCK!
