The Day Before Mother’s Day (5/10/08)

Hi all! Well…it’s a day before Mother’s Day and a week since getting these kinky twist braids. I like them and have received several compliments. I hope my Sisterlocks draw compliments from people also…but I have no worries that they will. I’ve joined an online group, LockItUp, and I’ve met others with Sisterlocks. There are some women on there with beautiful Sisterlocks. I can’t wait to join the Sisterlock family!!! HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ALL MOTHERS!!!

Second Transition Hairstyle - Kinky Twist Braids (5/3/08)

Hi everyone! Ok…my patience has started to diminish…I WANT MY SISTERLOCKS!!! I need to grow out at least 1 1/2 to 2 inches of new growth before I can have Sisterlocks installed. Soooo…I decided that the only way to make progress, and FAST, was to get braids. I wanted something as close to wearing locks as possible, so I chose to get these kinky twist braids. I like them!!! I called up Machy African Hair Braiding Salon in Calumet City, Illinois and was able to get an appointment today. These braids should give my hair a break and allow it to grow. I’m going to keep them in as long as I can. Hopefully, once they’re ready to come out, I can immediately get ready for my Sisterlocks!
