My linesister/tail got married and I was so happy and excited to be able to share that special day with her. She was a beautiful bride and looked absolutely amazing. Here are a few pictures of her and her husband, son,, my linesisters, and one of my ADPs. AND of course, my Sisterlocks.... sn ppl kept giving me tons of compliments on my sisterlocks hairstyle. All I did was give myself a massive part.Also people noticed the weight lost and were complimenting me on that as well! I don't know about you but its always a great feeling to get a compliment. Lol. Check out the pictures below! UNTIL NEXT TIME...
After admiring/researching sisterlocks for 2 months, I decided it was the right choice for me. After 3 years of being a loose natural, I was ready to embark on a new journey. This blog is about my journey to becoming sisterlocked and hopefully it is helpful for individuals thinking about getting their hair locked but have been afraid to take the final step.(Plz do not use any of my pics w/o my consent. Thanks!)

Untitled rant part 2
Good afternoon everyone! This is somewhat of a rant. I forgot to post this. It appears that I have been having the hardest time finding a new/right consultant and or trainee for me. Last month I had a horrible experience with a trainee and this month I had another one. I just want to get my hair retighten guys.
So I am on the search for a licensed cosmetologist and sisterlocks trainee or consultant. So far I have found at least 5 within 1hour of me. But before I found them, I went to someone in my area and on the website to retighten my hair. And she looked at my hair and asked how long had I had my SL and I told her 2 years. She begins to tell me that my hair should have loced a long time ago and she can seal the ends and the ends should have been sealed on my hair. I politely told her. "One thing about me is that I love my hair and I am not concern with when or even if my hair locs. I like my ends as they are and I like the floppy fro look of my hair and I like my current texture of my hair.Your the first and only person that has ever told me that something was wrong with my hair and that I needed it fix"
Now the lady was nice and it was nice atmosphere or what not. And she really did a good job on retighten my hair and even wrote a posr about her. But I am not going to knock her for that I will def give credit when its due. But what she said didnt sit well with me andbhad been I n my mind all thus week and I dicussed it with both of my old consultants and they were offended and said there was nothing wrong with my sisterlocks.
Needless to say I won't be back to her and it took her 5 hours to retighten my hair. I'm sorry that's too long for me. Esp. When your a certified consultant and have been doing Sisterlocks since 03. Now I will fess up and say that it had been a little over 5 weeks and I normally go in every 4 weeks but that was ths earliest that she could get me in. So that could have played a factor on the time. I may never know. My previous consultant got me out in under 4 and tanisha brown whobstarted my locs got got me out in under 3.
Not to sound rude or cocky but some people really rattle my feathers. I felt like she was milking me and wanted me to feel like my hair was oh so terrible. I go every 4 weeks faithfully and the creator of sisterlocks has even seen my hair and said she loves them and i am featured on the offical SL website. What your not going to do is tell me my hair is messed up and my first consultant who started my locs should have done my hair a certain way and by coming to her shes going to get my hair in shape. Mine you I went to a few consultantion with some other trainees and consultant and they all said who ever started and maintained my SL did a great job. LADY GOOD DAY AND GOOD BYE...
And this is why I ask people to shout out their consultant and or trainee so ppl can and will know who to and not to go to...
My rant is over. Keep me in your prayers. Thats why I like going to licensed cosmetologist my rant is over.

Almost 21 months
Hey guys sorry for the lack of updates in the last few months. However I am still in search for the perfect consultant for me. I did have someone retighten my hair this past week. She did a great job but I just was not in love with her if that makes sense. I would totally recommend her however to anyone so I don't want you guys to think I don't like her. Her name is LaShan Briggs and she is located in Williamsburg, Va. Below are pictures of my hair before the reti and after. I am also going to upload pictures of the updo i rocked at my alma mater homecoming. Finally I will upload a picture of day 1 of my install and now. Once again thanks for reading and also check out my youtube page same name different spot!
