Goals for 2012

I thought of this post while reading Darker Than Brown's post about her own hair goals. When I cut my hair in May/June 2011, I knew that I would take this opportunity to relearn my hair. I made goals for myself too. They were:

• Healthier hair
• A definite regimen
• APL hair by February 28, 2012 
• Better knowledge of products for my hair
• Ability to listen to my hair
• Knowledge and implementation of many, many different hairstyles

I accomplished many of my goals with my loose hair. I definitely moved my hair to a higher level of health. I even formed a stable regimen. Listening to my hair is still somewhat a challenge, but I am getting much better at it. I even know a few styles! Starting locs has made my goal of APL hair pretty impossible. I have so much shrinkage that it's ridiculous. I'm alright with it though.

Goals for 2012 are certainly in order. Here they are:

• More baby loc friendly styles
• Regular trips to the loctitian
• A definite loc regimen

I'm sure I'll come up with more soon. Until next time...
