10 month update!


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!
