I am happy to say that I will be officially join the sisterlocks community soon! I have been natural for two years now, and honestly I really didn't expect my hair to grow soooo fast! For the past year, I have been frustrated with my hair, not knowing what to do with it! I have tried braids, but my hair is soft, so it doesn't last too long. Then there is the twist, and twist out, which is cool, but with my thick hair, it takes hours to do, and if I leave it in more than a couple of days, it starts to curl and lock up (really bad).
Then last year, while I was at a church service, I saw this lady who had beautiful dreads!! At first, I would have never ever thought of getting dreads, but after seeing hers, I wanted to see what else was out there. I knew I didn't want to go back to perms, but at the rate my hair was growing, I know that I couldn't last like this....so that is when I found SISTERLOCKS!
I have been researching them for about a year now, and I have gotten some positves and negatives about getting them. Ultimately its up to me!!! And I chose to pursue them.
The only thing that stopped me was MONEY!!! I am a broke college student, and money is tight!!! And even though I wanted them sooo bad now, I decided to wait until I graduated to get them, that way I knew that I would be able to take care of them.
But this weekend, I was at the Eumoja Festival, and I ran across a vendor who has a natural hair shop, and I told her about me longing for sisterlocks. God must have been looking out for me because she offered me a price that I couldn't refuse...and after that, I set up my appointment!!!
Ladies and Gents I am soooo excited, I am sooo ready to get them!!! So in about a month, I will be on my way to a new beginning in my natural journey...hey, isnt this what knew growth is all about???
Until next time,
