Do You Know What Today Is?

Well.... Do you?  It wasn't until a few minutes ago that I realized my locs are officially three years old.  Oh how time has flown.  Here is my latest set of bathroom/hallway pictures:

Last retwist was two weeks ago

My ponytail is going to meet my shirt soon!

I know, I'm the worst.  I really need to start cropping before I upload.  That just leads to delays and I really wanted to post before the battery on the laptop dies.

Uh, oh.  The "plug in or find another power source warning" just popped up.

Well, I just wanted to check in.  I'll try to post sooner rather than later so you can know what happened with my beeswax retwist.

Bye

Hi There

Summer has come and gone, fall is starting to feel like winter, and I am finally about to post.  Sorry for the delay.  There have been many days that I wanted to post, but just couldn't fit it into the schedule.  Did I tell you guys that I'll be participating in the Washington, DC Avon Walk for Breast Cancer?  Fundraising for that has taken over my life.  Oh, and I'm moving.  More on that later, hopefully.

Anyway just play a bit of catch up on my hair situation:
1.  I did not try to get my scalp under control.
2.  I stuck to the no retwist until about September 5.  My husband wanted me to go to a wedding with him and I thought it would be nice not to look crazy.  Unfortunately, I was so busy admiring the hair on one of the members of the bridal party that I forgot to take a picture of my own.




Her stylist took loc petals to a whole new level.  Her hair is about waist length I think she said and it took about 4 hours.  Not sure if that was including the first style the stylist tried that she didn't like.

Here's what my hair looked like when I retwisted it myself last week:

It's been been about three years since I cut all my hair off.  That's so crazy.

Now, I'm really wishing I asked homegirl how long it took to get waist length.  Not sure I could manage that much hair anyway.

So, there's how things are going with my hair.  Hope all is well with you and yours.  Many thanks to NaturaLocs for letting me know that someone actually reads my blog.  Thanks for motivating me.

Mature? I think so

Over last week or so, I've felt a new love for my locs.  They just seem so mature now. Yay!!!

Back to Work

After not having to do my hair for two weeks, it was tough going back to work yesterday.  This was the most I could do:




If I braid the front back, I've got a ponytail. Yay!!!
