I have had my sisterlocks for nearly six months and still no regrets. I absolutely adore my sisterlocks. People still seem to be confused and consistently ask me who twists my hair. I get so many compliments that start with, “I love your hair,” and when I mention that they are sisterlocks there is a swift, “Why did you do that to your hair?” and “how are you going to get it out?” People, people, people! I would very much like to be a bit rude and respond by saying, “how are you going to get your perm out,” but as my loctician says, “I have famous hair,” and just like misunderstood celebrities, so is the life of my hair.

I must admit that on some days, I feel like my hair is not as cute as others are declaring. I think this is mainly due to my perm ends. I love my style and my perm ends are not causing any problems, but I am getting the itch to be 100% sisterlocked. I want to walk in the rain and not worry. I want to go to bed without wrapping up my hair. I want to wake up and shake my locks without wondering if my perm ends are frizzy. Nevertheless, I am still ver much in love.

Still in LOVE at 20 weeks

11 Weeks Locked

Standard

At 11 weeks locked, I am starting to notice growth. My locks are slowly but surely growing and this is evident in the pictures. When I first got the locks, many pictures did not clearly highlight the locs because of the size and all of the perm ends. The fact that pictures are picking up more of the form illustrates the small steps that my hair is making. Every day, I love my hair more and more. At this stage, I have no regrets. I find myself constantly saying I LOVE my hair.
