Week 1 of starter locs and they have been retwisted already. My hair is growing well, I just have to get use to the same style for right now. Hopefully by this time next year I can do more styles. Patience is everything. I'm going to school so there will be no time for hair for the next 9 months.

my locs journey

Well 've decided to get locs. I had the honor of helping Malaika Cooper the owner of Dreadz N Headz salon. She needed 3 hair models because she teaches classes. I volunteered and I just love the way my hair looks. I have two strand twist, but with diamond pattern. I will return to the salon in 3 weeks for a retwisting. It was funny how my locs journey started on the 10th month of my natural hair journey.

Mother's Day

I had a great mother's day it started with brunch with the hubby and then I went to my oldest daughter's house and say the grandkids. Then all the rest of my children came. I reicved cards and flowers and balloons. Then we all went to dinner except for my one and only son, because he didn't have any money so he didn't go. but I still love him. I had seen him in over a month he such a work-aholic. My oldest grandson was excited to give my card which is now displayed on my entertainment center. It's one of those musical cards. It says who has the best grandma and then it says I do I do... Have to love the kids.

my first attempt at flexirods

I tried to flexi rod my hair the other day, I slept on those rods and woke up with a headache. So I took them out real early. I could really tell if they work because my hair was super curly. I think I just stick to my two strand twist out. I thinking about a proctective style for the summer but I'm not sure if I really want a proctective style. I will have to do more research.

Mothers day 2010

I had a wonderful mothers day, hanging out with the family. I had brunch with my hubby. Then later we all went to dinner at Red Lobster. The begining of the week it was warm but by the weekend it was cold. But I still rocked my fro and my sun dress. I received flowers and cards. My favorite card was the musical card that my lovely grandchildren gave me. Love my grandmas babies.
