14 Months and 4 Days Strong :)

Dear lock blog

I promised my friend Momo that i would write an update so i decided to do it before i procrastinate like i always do. its been two months since my last update.. wow where did all the time go? my locks are 14 months and 4 days old. and the experience has been overwhelming thus far. ive had three lock journeys in april 2008. it seems like everytime i cut my locks off i would automatically begin to miss them. thats why this set has been so successful.

Part of the reason why i love going natural is because of the freedom that comes along with it. i like waking up every day and not having to worry about my hair. i love to say that i dont put any harsh chemicals in my hair. I dont have to do much to make my hair grow. with the stress that comes with everyday living the last thing i want to worry about is my hair. even when it rains i dont have to worry about my locks too much. maintenance isnt time consuming or expensive and i can be creative with my hair whenever i feel like it. there are so many things i like about this experience.

what makes this journey even more special to me is that this set was started by me. i like being able to say that i didnt need to go to a salon to maintain my locks. guess that goes to show how easy it was lols. but enough with reflections.

in my last post i complained that my locks were a little bit frizzy. but since then i havent been doing to much to get rid of the frizzies because ive been so busy. lately they have subsided. in my bored moments i would take some of the loose hairs and wrap them around the lock. that seemed to help. other than that i havent done much to get rid of them. ive come to realize that regardless of what i do to tame it, my hair is gonna do what it wants. in time it comes around. my hair is overdue for a wash and twist. maybe ill hold off on the washing and just twist it. either way is fine with me lols. pictures coming up :)
