my hair is stuck in a rut

Hey everyone, my hair is stuck in a rut. To long to curl but too short to just let hang. my curls don't last long without some sort of setting mist. I really want some color to spruce it up but I'm 19 months locked and afraid of messing up my hair. I have not used any other shampoo other than SL starter. I am ready for a change. I am feeling it looks really blah. I'm sure you really agree by looking at my pics.

Hello everyone,

I am so glad to have locs for 18 months and loving them. I am glad to be not just grown but mature. There is truly a difference something I wish I could relate to young woman especially my daughters. I'm saying that they are mature but they still have some time to grow. I just want to be able to help them in areas that I can.

I need some color to my locs and I am realy trying to wait because I don't want to mess up my locs but come spring I going RED.
