My Sisterlock Journey

This gallery is dedicated to documenting my Sisterlock journey. My installation / establishment was completed on Dec 18th 2012. I have 396 Sisterlocks. My edges are extremely weak due to the weight of micro braids that I had put in they broke my poor edges (NEVER AGAIN)...so here goes!!!!!

Seven Months....Left Side
6 Months - I've been rocking my Sisterlocks for just about six months. They are filling in nicely. I wasn't prepared for how HOT my head gets now that the warmer months are upon us....I guess I had grown use to wearing my hair in my "Afro Puff". We shall see how this summer progresses, I think it will be fine, just wish my hair was a little longer that I could try a few "updo" hairstyles. Still enjoying the journey ~ Stormy ~
Losing weight feeling great....seriously the only thing I had to do to my hair was spray a little water on it and woop I'm done
BAM....the other side...curls are just TIGHT
Whoop there it is...patches
(1 Week) I just can't keep my hands out of my hair, I'm always touching and twirling. I try not to pull them or anything like that, but it's hand to head every 5 seconds
(Day 5) - Super Cool....that I am :)
