Although I have not put in a full installation since taking the Sisterlocks class, I have been keeping my skills sharp by doing re-tightings. Below is my youngest client. She was 4 when I first started her. But in the 5 months that I have been doing her hair she has turned 5. With her mother's permission I decided to showcase her on my blog. Introducing, Ms. Nataliea! Isn't she just the cutest!
She has soft hair that crawls, but it is coming right along. I think everyone that I know with sisterlocks had their hair lock before mine did. If my memory is correct, I believe her locks are about a year. I did not start locking until after 2 years. This is us after 6 hours of re-tightening. It takes a bit longer because of many, many,many breaks and that fact that she is really tender headed. She is a joy though. You just have to love her! And hear locks are gorgeous!

So with out further ado hear are a few shots of me recently.
*Note: 3 years & 3 months was 11-1-09, but close enough eh?)

Lady Ga Ga Hair Bow
Here is a cute way to get the hair off your neck. Just imagine it in the middle and neatened up a bit. Could be a nice elegant up do. I like the side version too, but I like different things. Can't wait to try it. I will post pics when I do. Check out the video.....just click the share tab.

Now does my hair really look like zillions! I mean maybe from afar, but certainly not up close. At least not to me! I get that sooo much. "Oh I thought you had zillions" Say what?!! What really got me was my boss that I have worked with for 14 years told me that he thought my hair was braid extensions. I was like, surely you jest. Right?! He was like no, I thought you had braids. Now keep in mind that he has been seeing my hair every since I got them put in. Just goes to show how much attention he is paying my hair. What do I expect...... he is a man right? But still lately I have been getting that a lot. Even from women. I patiently explain the real deal but I am like come on! My hair does NOT look like zillions!!!!! I did just recently get a grooming but darn tooting I still think my hair looks like sister locks! Maybe when more of my ends close I will get more lock respect. Aarrrgghhh! Sometimes it gets to me cause I know the patience it took to get where I am today. I want my lock respect! LOL! Thanks for listening and letting me vent. I feel better now.
Much love and peace to all. :-)
