Recent Pictures












As promised, here are some recent pics of my hair. I've been experimenting with color by testing a few locs which you can see in the third picture. I haven't been 100% pleased with the results, so I'm thinking of going to a professional colorist to have it done. One of my biggest issues is finding locs with several holes in them. There's a nice sized section of locs towards the middle that have holes. I'm not sure why I didn't notice before, but it's really disappointing because they look awful. I counted eight holes in one of them. I remember this being discussed during the Sisterlocks class and believe it has to do with the "Y" being split incorrectly during retightening. My appointment is next Wednesday so I'll definitely have to bring it up. Has anyone else encountered this?

My, look at all that growth. Flash it girl, flash it, lol.

Would you have to take down those locks with holes in order to have them repaired?

Your hair is lovely! I'm thinking you have about the same thickness as mine. I will hit my 1 yr mark in July so looking at yours helps me visualize what mine may look like in another two years. At your next retightening your consultant should be able to fix the holes. I found one hole in a lock which I'll have addressed as well. Good luck and keep locking.
