I remember turning 10 years old like it was yesterday. I had this HUGE birthday party. I got a Game Boy. I had this enormous cake. And I got a mess of money. Since then I have always loved the number 10.
And so the locs are 10 months old.
OMG!!
Yes, I'm excited. They are growing so beautifully (if I do say so myself) and ever since I started latching, I seriously love my hair even more. Latching means not having to worry about twists untwisting.
First off....I've been noticing more this month than any other month that my locs are:
a) touching my neck
b) covering my ears
That means they are growing somethin' serious. It also means they make my face hot. Grr.
So when I'm at home I usually have to wear to buns at the top.
...they aren't long enough to go in one ponytail.
Well, a REAL ponytail. But ponytails comes with a challenge.
That's a busted hair tie. Yep, my hair is STILL breaking ish. Back when I had the fro it was comb teeth. Now it's hair ties. Gotta love it!
I don't latch the first few rows of locs though.
These locs require the most maintenance because well uh...they are the ones in the spotlight.
Remember a few months ago when you could see my scalp?
Not no mo!
I don't know why I have that Playbill in my hand. LMAO! So random....
I am so happy. And so pleased.
And it is taking everything in me to not color my hair again. I know, I know. I won't. Three dye jobs is enough.
For now.
Video coming soon!
