Lopsided

Aw snap! One side of my hair is considerably shorter than the other side! Just take a look at the pics below. I know why. I did it to myself. When my locs were in their baby stages I had stringy ends on just one side because I decided to dye my hair before I got it Sisterlocked. The dye changed the texture of my hair only in certain spots. I was livid! I had cut off all my permed hair and waited until I had enough hair to Sisterlock and the day before I was to get the Sisterlocks the bad dye job changed my texture. I called my consultant almost in tears. She said not to worry and that I could still get my locks I got my locks and they looked great except for one side had stringy ends. I took it as long as I could, but then I could not stand it any more. It seemed harmless at the time so I just snipped them off. It did not seem like it would make that much difference. That is what I get for being scissor happy. I guess I will have to even it out. Oh well....it seems as if I still have not learned my lesson. LOL! The only thing I can say about this is........wait before you dye. Make sure your hair is ready. Or at least get it professionally done. Yes I did the bad dye job myself. My consultant teases me. She calls it the DIE job! Although I do look at blaqkofi and sister-in-locks and have color envy. I just know that my hair texture requires me to be patient and wait. Heck,I am almost 16mo. locked and I am still braiding and banding.

No laughing. Just keep reading the blog......Lol!!! (my daughter did this to me)
When my hair grows up it wants to be just like Blaqkofi and Sister-in-locks and all the other beautiful Sisterlock sisters that have color
Stay blessed

I've been tagged.....

I have been tagged by s0utherngirl so here is my attempt at trying to post links and stuff. LOL!

1. Link to the person that tagged you
2. Post the rules on your blog
3. Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself
4. Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs
5. Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

1. I am a left handed middle child. Don't worry, I am still relatively normal. LOL!
2. Golf relaxes me. I love it
3. I love music. Of all kind. My sister used to call me jukebox because I would always start singing a song that would relate to the situation we were in. She said I always have a song in my heart.
4. My first automatic car was in 1997. I love manual cars. They are sporty, cost less and are usually more fuel efficient. The only reason I have an automatic now is because after my second child my knees started acting up on me. And the clutch was just aggravating the situation.
5. An email was circulated that instructed my friends and family to describe me in one word. Some said funny and some real. No one used any other words but those two. I was like wow........interesting. And true.
6. I have excellent intuition. I do not know why. My husband thinks it is amazing. I told him I think it is partly a gift and partly because I listen and am very aware of my surroundings.

15months

Greetings everyone. Hope this Friday finds you happy in spirit and well in health. Just wanted to post pics of.........MY HAIR!! I must say that I love my sisterlocks.
They have brought me a freedom that I did not deem possible regarding loving how my hair looks and the low maintenance to acheive that look. My hair moves and is soft and shakeable.:-)

I am getting better at self portraits. Hope these show some texture and capture how my hair looks in person. Some of these came out pretty interesting.

Have a good weekend! Love, peace and blessings!

14 Months

In the above photo bucket was just fooling around with my camera. This is me currently(just realized I am 14 months not 13). My hair looks a little drawn up. Probably because I just washed it and had it retightened over the weekend. Some days my hair looks longer. Check out my Indianapolis T-shirt. I am in Detroit via Indianapolis. That is where I was born and raised. My home town prompted my blog name. Man it is hard to take decent pics of your self. Guess I will have to recruite my fam to help me. Cause in some of these pics I look funny. LOL!!!

11 month & 1 year anniversary

Here we are months month 11 and my 1 year mark. Unfortunately I only have one pic of me at my 1 year mark and it isn't even a good one. It is me in the burgundy blouse. My lock anniversary is Nov. 1, 2006. The pic was taken Thanksgiving 2007. The other pics were taken during my birthday, which was October, 2007. The Thanksgiving pic is my famous braid out. I wore that a lot once my hair started growing and I had some curly q's on my ends and some ends were doing their own thing. The braid out made it look more uniform. My birthday hairdo is a rod set with water and lotta body. Then I got under the dryer for about 30 minutes. I am currently 13 months. I plan to post current pics of me as soon as I get my camera back from my daughter. Until then blessings and good cheer!
