Helloooo! Yesterday, February 20, 2012, was my 4 months locaversary!!! Yaaay! I'm so excited! Even though it was my babies' bday, I wore my hair all wrapped up today. I'll explain why later. My hair has changed soooo much!
All of my babies are budding now! I guess they are teenagers, now. My favorite little boo is completely loc'd except for a curly q at the end. I have not been to the loctitian since the end of December 2011. A long time right? Well, last week I let a girl on campus who's had locs for over 10 years retwist my locs. Fail! She basically only retwisted the roots. I ended up doing them all over again and didn't do a bad job at all. I think I will do them myself until I go back home.
In other news, I hit another milestone: my first ponytail!!! This momentous occasion took place on Valentine's Day! As you can see in the picture, I have a low ponytail with a nice amount of hang time! This was my first ponytail since May 2011. I'd just washed my hair and decided to see if they could make it to a ponytail. My babies complied with ease.
I am making so much progress so quickly that I've become anxious. I have developed a serious case of "hand in loc" disease. Soooo I've decided to challenge myself to wear a scarf all week. I will probably extend my challenge every week. Maybe I can push out a whole month. I'll even challenge myself to put of pics of my styles at the end of the week! Here's a length pic for the road!
Like this post. they look so nice in a ponytail with the curly ends. how often do you re-twist now?
ReplyDeleteThank you! I have a high ponytail right now lol. I retwist about every five weeks now. The longest I've gone without a retwist was six weeks.
