A Hair

I was saved by Sisterlocs in Aug. 2007, 9 months locked. I had never seen sisterlocs or so I thought. One day I woke and decided that I was tired of throwing my money out of the window and not even catching a breeze. So I decied to get something to the affect of locs so I visited a few salons that were doing traditional locs. After looking I knew I wanted something that I could style but not be bother with and triditional locs were not it. So after doing research I came upon SL's and became excited. Then I found a loctician in Oak Park, MI, Paulette at Locs 4 Life. Actually I had 2 trainees do my hair, Ashley, Paulette's daughter and Robin. I done about a month of research and that was enough for me. My DH was not happy when I came home after 2 days of locking session. He says that I must be crazy b/c I had that wet plucked chicken style. After I showed him some of styles on the internet all he said is that is "my hair don't look like that. Well after some time he has come to love it.

Over the past 50 years I have had all types of hair styles. Afros, Braids, Perms, sew in weaves, glue in weaves, lace front weaves, twist, fake knots, and color. These are some of my slave hair that I thought was cute. Can you believe that?
I love all kinds of reds, which I don't have right now and it's killing me. This the first time that I have been natural in about 30 years. I never thought I would like it but I am in love with my hair.
